Despite having a decent placement cell, IEM does not offer enough internships for its students. I know more about the EE department as a friend of mine is pursuing EE at IEM.

For the EE department, the campus drive does not arrange any internship or VT. You will need to arrange one on your own. According to my friend, getting an internship is easy if you have any contact with the company, you want to intern in. Although it is difficult to build a connection in the web of companies. Sometimes, they don’t even check your mails.

The scenario regarding internships is almost the same for all the branches. Though recently I heard the college will give internship opportunities to CSE students, provided they maintain a good attendance record.

The bottom line is that your CV should have at least one internship or VT. So, try to arrange it as early as possible.
