For Civil Engineers Industrial training also essential apart from classroom education

AICTE made it Mandatory, all the engineering students had to undergo Internships to get an Industrial Exposure.

Internships are short trainings during the education or after the education, to get an idea about the real work place, job requirements and you can say preview of your workplace requirements
