CUSAT provides excellent internship opportunities through its strong industrial connections and collaborations with reputed companies. The placement cell actively assists students in securing internships, ensuring hands-on experience in their respective fields.Cochin shipyard is one of the leading ship building company and most of the students get internship there. Other companies like cochin port, refineries, hmt, apollo, kpcl, fact etc are very near and will get internship opportunity very easily with recommendation from the HOD. These are mostly without stipend. But with stipend internship also approaches the students. But the internship is chosen according to the type of company not based on the amount of stipend.

From S2, the students are required to build a mini project and many internship are provided in the college. Companies like TCS and Infosys provide the students with paid internship. In the fourth year, Students are required to do a six months internship outside.

As i am a first semester student of cusat, I have not received any information about the internships offered in cusat but i have heard about companies whoch provide with a small stipend of 5k to 20k to bog companys like ISRO , DRDO and BPCL they provode with a hige stipend and this is all for mechanical engineering students and offcourse for the other department like software will have a larger stipend conpared to mechanical students .

CUSAT offers excellent offer packages. But for CS, IT and Safety Fire Students. Even though a core branch, Mechanical Engineering has a very low rate of campus placements. Only few people get selected for mechanical based jobs which also have only 5-6 LPA at maximum. For survival reasons, everyone learns coding from the side and try to get into the IT field. I however personally plan on going to the middle east where mechanical engineers have a better chance at getting a job.

The placement cell regularly collaborates with the top companies to provide internship opportunities. Companies like TCS, Wipro etc. Active alumni network is another valuable resource often opening doors to internships

Students are eligible for placement from semester 6. Many of the largest companies such as Cisco, IBM, Wipro etc come for placements. The largest package was 40 LPA from IT department and average package is 6 LPA. Last year's batch had placement percentage of 90%. My future plans are to try my best for placements, no plans for suture studies as of now.
