This effectively guides student on applicability of projects and leads them to developing entrepreneurship culture. Select students from some of the renowned institutes in Pune are taking benefits of PCERF’s SIP initiative and the students are interviewed by PCERF committee members before being absorbed in the industry. This process helps PCERF to create awareness or convey general code of conduct to students while working in the industry and also helps in understanding interest area/s of the students. Once absorbed, progress of these students during the SIP period is tracked on a routine basis by their faculty and PCERF committee. Students who produce excellent results during the SIP are allowed to work further with the respective industry and few select topics are taken up for further research.On completing SIP successfully, PCERF offers certificate to the students, on the basis of `Progress Report and Performance’.
