The programme’s stated goals are hands-on rather than theoretical. Participants are expected to develop technical and research skills through active project work, not classroom instruction. The mode is fully offline, meaning selected candidates will be required to be physically present on the IIT Jammu campus for the duration of their internship.

The programme is open to pre-final year undergraduate students as well as postgraduate students from institutions other than IIT Jammu. Preference will be given to candidates with strong programming or technical skills.

The internship runs between May and July 2026, with a flexible duration of four to eight weeks. The minimum commitment is four weeks. A stipend kicks in for interns who extend their stay to eight weeks.
