The final semester is dedicated entirely to a full-time internship and project placement, allowing students to apply their accumulated coursework to a substantial real-world engagement in industry or research before graduation.
Subjects
Full Semester Internship & Project Work
- Focus: a semester-long, full-time internship combined with a capstone project, undertaken in industry, a research setting, or an equivalent approved placement.
- Structure: students work under joint academic and industry/organizational supervision, culminating in a project report and evaluation rather than conventional coursework.
- Credit structure: L-T-P-C = 0-0-24-12 (24 contact-equivalent hours, 12 credits).
Semester load: 0-0-24 contact hours, 12 credits total — the entire semester is allocated to internship and project work.
Optional Minor and Honors course pools (e.g., Cloud Computing Security, NoSQL Databases, Web & Database Security, Social Media Security, IoT Security) are available across III and IV Year for students pursuing a Minor in Cyber Security or an Honors degree, in addition to the core semester structure described above.
