 NTCC GUIDELINES for SUMMER INTERNSHIP

INTRODUCTION

The academic philosophy of Amity University revolves around student centric

learning, which takes into consideration their varied learning needs and
significantly accelerates their retention of both knowledge and skills. It inspires
and gives chance to the student to operate, manage and monitor his/her own
learning process under the supervision and the guidance of the faculty
supervisor so that he/she can train himself to be independent and develop
oneself to be a good professional.

Non -Teaching Credit Courses have proved to be great tools to achieve the
objectives of student centric learning.

practical experience,
Industry, field experience, live experience, research, design projects etc.
 The learning process in the NTCC seeks out and focuses attention on
many latent attributes, which do not surface in the normal class room
situations.
 Research and its importance in experiential learning through NTCC.
