Role Overview:-

As a Program Intern, you will work directly with the Campus Head in a cross-functional capacity, stepping into whichever area needs attention on any given day – admissions one week, placements the next, hostel operations when the situation demands. This is not a siloed, back-office internship; you won't be assigned to a single function. Instead, you'll move fluidly across campus operations based on priority, learning how an educational institution works end-to-end. Your work will have a direct, visible impact on the student experience.

What You Could Be Working On:-

The following are the functional areas you'll operate across. Your focus will shift based on the need of the hour, campus calendar, and emerging priorities.

Campus & Hostel Operations

• Assist in day-to-day campus operations including facility coordination, vendor management, and logistics.

• Help maintain operational checklists, trackers, and SOPs to ensure nothing falls through the

cracks.

Student Experience & Welfare

• Be a point of contact for student concerns – escalating issues, following up on resolutions, and maintaining feedback loops.

• Help plan and execute student engagement activities: orientation programs, cultural events,

workshops, and wellness initiatives.

• Contribute to the Progression Charter – a structured framework to continually improve student experience and outcomes.

Internships & Placements

scheduling drives, and documentation.

• Help maintain databases of recruiter relationships, placement statistics, and student profiles.

• Coordinate mock interviews, resume reviews, and career development sessions.

Admissions Support

• Assist in admissions outreach – responding to inquiries, organizing campus tours, and

supporting counselling sessions.

• Help maintain lead trackers, application pipelines, and conversion analytics.

• Support the preparation of marketing collateral, webinars, and campus events for prospective

students.

Documentation & Communication

• Draft emails, reports, meeting notes, and internal communications on behalf of the Campus Head.

• Maintain and organize critical documents on Google Workspace, Notion, or other collaboration tools.

• Prepare presentations, dashboards, and status reports for leadership reviews.
