NUST Internship Programme for International Students (NIPIS ’21)

NUST Internship Programme for International Students (NIPIS ’21), the university’s signature internship programme, was officially launched at the Islamabad campus today, July 5, 2021. The programme promises to deliver a sublime internship experience that not only advances professional skills of students coming in from around the world but also reinforces their academic competence through its practical applications. The programme is focused on promoting diversity, growth, cultural exchange and opportunities for all.

Considering the Covid-19 pandemic and travel restrictions thereof this year as many as 19 student interns are virtually participating in the programme, while virtually a total of 14 interns have managed to physically attend the internship on campus. In addition, eight interns under AIESEC have also joined the programme.

Dr Rizwan Riaz, NUST Pro-Rector Research, Innovation & Commercialisation, extended a warm welcome to the students and introduced them to the array of activities they will have a chance to benefit from during their internship.
