Delhi University announced the opening of applications for the second iteration of the "Vice Chancellor Internship Scheme." Undergraduate and graduate students at the university may apply for paid internships at its departments and centres through the summer internship programme.
On the university website, students from any normal course and stream—with the exception of first-year students—can apply for the internship. The application deadline is 17 May 2023.
The DU VC internship programme will run for two months—tentatively, June and July. However, the time commitment is flexible, only requiring 15 to 20 hours per week.
The institution will interview candidates to narrow down the field, and those chosen will get a stipend of Rs 10,000 per month. At the conclusion of the internship, a certificate of experience will be given by the office of the dean of students' welfare.
This year, students who have previously benefited from the internship programme are ineligible to apply. All university institutions, departments, and centres, including the VC's office, the numerous libraries, the admissions branch, and the Equal Opportunity Cell, will be covered by the programme.
For the 110 openings in its paid internship programme last year, the university got more than 3,800 applications from undergraduate and postgraduate students.
