Jammu: The Jammu & Kashmir Entrepreneurship Development Institute (JKEDI) is all set to host a 10-day Summer Internship Program from June 4, 2025, at its Bari Brahmana campus in Jammu. This initiative is a  step toward fostering experiential learning and strengthening industry-academia linkages in line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, a statement issued to Ziraat Times today said..

Sixty undergraduate students pursuing a Bachelor’s in Business Administration (BBA) from Government SPMR College of Commerce, Jammu, will participate in the first batch of this internship program. As mandated by NEP 2020, all undergraduate students must complete a 60-hour internship to complement their academic curriculum with practical exposure.

The program aims to provide participants with an enriching experience in the domains of entrepreneurship, innovation, and enterprise creation. Students will engage in interactive sessions with seasoned professionals, participate in business simulations, and explore real-world entrepreneurial challenges and solutions.

Interns will also gain insight into the Institute’s activities and programs, including Entrepreneurship Awareness Programs (EAPs), Orientation Programs (EOPs), and Entrepreneurship Development Programs (EDPs), Detailed Project Report Formulations etc, all geared toward promoting entrepreneurship as a viable career choice.

By bridging classroom learning with real-world applications, the internship will help students develop critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and the entrepreneurial mindset needed to thrive in today’s competitive environment.
