SIP is a critical component of the Programme. It provides a unique and invaluable opportunity to learn the realities of agri-business management and to prove one’s abilities as a management professional. Soliciting Projects and Assigning Students Securing and assigning summer projects is the responsibility of the Centre and the decisions of management in this respect will be final. Students are encouraged to assist the management in establishing contacts with companies for this purpose, but such help will in no way entitle a student to necessarily secure a summer placement in the same company.
