For each area of specialization, a group of faculty members will be assigned with one of them as the coordinator of the group. Thus, there will be four groups of faculty members for the four areas of specialization. The coordinator of each group, the members and the list of students are given in a separate sheet. The group leader will coordinate the activities of the group and also guide the students specializing in the respective area. The following are the specific responsibilities of each group: a) Have a discussion with the respective students and find out their fields of interest within the overall area of specialization; b) Group the students on the basis of their broad interest and form groups of three to five; c) According to the number of groups of students, identify suitable organizations and carry out the initial negotiations with these organizations; d) Get the official letter from the Director, if that is required and send it to the Organizations; e) Orient and guide the students to carry out the SIP; f) Visit the field (SIP organizations) at least once during the entire period; g) Ensure that every student is under the guidance of one particular Faculty member, who will guide, monitor and assist the student in his/her SIP work and finally assess the performance. The assignment for SIP will be in groups of three to five, as far as possible. However, each student is expected to work independently on one topic that has been approved by the guide and the respective organization. In order to groom the students well to meet the challenges of the corporate or development world and to enable them to carry out their SIP with full attention and concentration, no student will be permitted to take up SIP in or around ones own home town. The Coordinator of each group will keep the Director informed of the progress of the work of the Students under the care of that group. Between May 10 and 12, 2011, broad guidelines about SIP will be given to the students in common. Along with that broad and general orientation, each group will give an additional orientation on specific issues related to the field of specialization. The orientation aims to make the students confident in handling the SIP. The Guides will make themselves familiar with the guidelines and adhere strictly to these guidelines, while guiding the students. The students will collect the Organizational Profile and the relevant data on the research topic, during the orientation period, with the help of the guide. During the SIP, in case someone has a problem or doubt, he/she can consult his/her immediate guide in the organization and for academic inputs he/she can consult the faculty guide through emails or phone calls.

through emails. A record of the number of contacts will be kept by the respective guides. The minimum number of email contact is: Five. For the field work, the students will be guided by the respective Organization and they will carry out the field work strictly on the basis of the expectations of the Organization. At the same time, they will gather data for writing the SIP Report on their return to the Institute. The students are expected to spend a total of 8 weeks for the Summer Intensive Programme six weeks in the field, two weeks in the Institute for writing the report -- from May 16 to June 30, 2011. All the students will return to the Institute on June 30, 2011. Immediately after their return (within two or three days by July 01 evening), they will submit a report of their activities in the field. From July 03 onwards, they will begin their report-writing work, under their respective guides. The students are expected to meet their guides regularly during the time of report-writing. The minimum number of visits to the guide is: Four (initial discussion, submission of the outline, first draft, second draft). The final report will be submitted to the Guide on or before July 09, 2011. The summer vacation begins on July 10, immediately after the submission of the SIP Report to the satisfaction of the Guide. However, no student can go for the summer break until the SIP Report is successfully completed. The third Semester commences on July 20 and the students are expected to arrive in the hostel on July 19. The students should obtain a completion certificate from the HR head of the organization on the letterhead and also a feedback form duly filled and sealed by his/her immediate supervisor in the organization.

Academic Guidelines
The Objectives The Summer Internship Programme (SIP) aims at widening the student's perspective by providing an exposure to real management and organizational and environmental situations. Positioned between the first year and the second year, this programme is the most effective aid in enabling the students to relate management theory to practice. The main objectives of SIP are as follows: 1. To help the student apply the knowledge and techniques learnt in the first year to real business problems and to test out and enrich ones understanding, knowledge and skills; 2. To help the student gain an insight into the real working of the organizations and to gain deeper understanding of specific functional areas; 3. To help the students to appreciate the linkages among different functions and develop a realistic managerial perspective about organizations in their totality; 4. To help the student in exploring career opportunities in their areas of interest; 5. To sensitize the students towards management/organizational issues and to help them identify the constraints and opportunities for development; 6. To provide the students an opportunity to get an in-depth study of the management/organizational issues;

7. To link the theoretical inputs given during classroom sessions with a practical exposure, during which the students conduct field-based scientific and empirical research; 8. To provide the students an opportunity for the practice of research skills, especially, the formulation of research questions and hypothesis, data collection, data analysis, critical reflection on the available data and research report writing; 9. To enable the students to develop their analytical, critical, creative, innovative, communicative and decision-making skills in the development field; 10. To teach the students the methodology and importance of the process of documentation (photo, audio, video); 11. To help the students to learn to prepare, implement, and monitor management/ development related projects on burning issues; 12. To identify and develop success stories/case studies. The Procedure During the Orientation Classes, the students will be given inputs and practical exercises on the Basics of Research Methodology and its links with different Functional Area of Management existing in organizations -- Human Resource, Marketing, Finance, Development. The faculty will guide the students keeping in mind his/her area of specialization, research methodology and the organisations where they do their SIP. The entire aim of this exercise is to promote critical and analytical thinking among students. In the Organization, the student works, either individually or in a team, under the counsel of an executive (Project Guide/HR Manager) who supervises and evaluates the performance of the student during his/her SIP period and sends a feedback on the same to the Institute. The student prepares and submits a report to his/her respective Organization and gives a presentation to the organization, if necessary, keeping in mind the requirements of that Organization. The Components of the SIP Report The SIP report should be a "reflection" paper, which broadly describes the work experience of the student. The following components are to be included: 1. A brief description of the organization -- its history, vision-mission, organizational culture, administration, functional areas of work; 2. Description of the study of an issue or a problem or a challenge the organization faces, as directed by the management of that organization; 3. Where possible, relating the study to relevant classroom experiences or the theoretical inputs; 4. Reflections on the usefulness or relevance of the theoretical inputs for the field work carried out during the SIP. Important Point to be kept in Mind by the Guides and the Students This report should be a completely personalized one, without blindly copying from any existing source, except for relevant references and quotations. Any report which is not original and personalized will not be approved. It is the responsibility of the Guide to ensure that the report is prepared according to this prescription.
