FOSSEE invites applications for the Semester-long Internship 2025. The students get an opportunity to work with the FOSSEE team for one semester. This is a remote internship with continuous support and mentoring. To get shortlisted for the internship, Select a project and choose a screening task from the table given below. Then you need to complete at least one of the screening tasks. The selection will be purely based on the evaluation criteria of each screening task. 

  1. Develop a Python program to perform the design of a steel connection for any of the following types:

  •     Lap Joint - Welded
  •     Butt Joint - Bolted
  •     Butt Joint - Welded

Implement calculations based on IS 800:2007

Develop unit tests using Python's pytest to validate the implementation.


  1. Design a simple beam bridge, performing structural analysis, component design, and documentation using engineering tools, Python, and LaTeX.


The submitted task will be reviewed by experts/ mentors from the FOSSEE team. 
After the review, the top submissions will be selected. The results of the selected interns will be displayed on the website.
The interns will get the flexibility to work full-time (8 hrs a day) or part-time (4 hrs a day) during the internship.
The selected interns have to submit a duly signed scanned copy of the NOC from the institution head. The format of the NOC shall be sent to the selected interns on their registered email id.
Only after submission of the NOC, the selection of the intern will be finalized. If any intern fails to submit the NOC, the chance will be given to the next intern on the waitlist.

Internship Learning Outcomes

Learning Outcomes Steel Connection Design with Python Gain proficiency in designing steel connections (Lap Joint - Welded, Butt Joint - Bolted, Butt Joint - Welded) using Python programming. Understand and implement design calculations based on IS 800:2007, a widely recognized Indian Standard for structural steel design. Develop the ability to apply engineering principles in software development for structural applications. Unit Testing with Pytest Learn to implement unit tests using Python's pytest framework to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the design calculations. Improve software testing skills, ensuring the developed program meets required standards and performs correctly under various scenarios. Structural Analysis and Documentation of a Beam Bridge Perform structural analysis for a simple beam bridge, considering factors like load distribution and material strength. Design the components of the beam bridge, such as beams, supports, and connections, based on engineering principles. Develop proficiency in using Python for engineering calculations and LaTeX for formal documentation of the design and analysis results. Learn to create professional reports, documenting engineering decisions, calculations, and drawings effectively.
