Internship Programmes


The Institute has strong collaboration with 10 of the world’s leading universities (six in France, two in Thailand and one each in Switzerland & Portugal. We shall soon add more universities from Europe and the USA to this list). Over 20% students have undergone their internships from these prominent international universities. More than forty students completed internship at our institute under Students Exchange Programme from French and Thailand universities.

Students of BKBIET take full advantage by joining such universities for their internship training.  Also one topper from each branch is offered scholarship from the French embassy to attend the internship training of 2-3 months at French Universities.

BKBIET International Relations Division 


The BIRD (BKBIET International Relations Division)  was successfully  inaugurated by Chief Guest Mr. Phillipe Cadene and Mr. Ashok K. Charoth on 14th May, 2011.

The objective of the BIRD is to encourage the students of the institute to embrace the global education. The division motivates the students to go on internships, look in to avenues of research and management after the completion of the bachelor's degree, serve as a pool of information to all those who find themselves interested in doing their higher studies abroad. The forum derives its strength from the director of the institute Dr. P.S. Bhatnagar,the mentor Mr. Shridhar B. Dandin, the core committee and motivated student members.

As of April 2011, more than 60 students have already visited different universities out of which the majority are in France. The division is also trying to spread its wings to other countries like Thailand, Portugal and Switzerland and planning for U.S., Malaysia and Germany.


Majority of the students who took internships went to various universities of France. Most Prominently: University of Nantes, University d'Haute Alsace, and IUT Angouleme. The measure of cooperation is exhibited by the fact that an unprecedented Joint Masters Programme is being setup between Polytech Nantes and BKBIET Pilani. And the sudents are highly motivated to take up higher education abroad in a scene where our peers in other institutes are trying to settle in for a job. The students are already taken off their flights of success with various scholarships under their belt. Counselling, Visas, Scholarships and other helps have always been available for the students of BKBIET through BIRD.      Gallery

French Language Course


The French Language Course was started in the year 2007 in collaboration with the French Embassy. Ms. Caroline Antunes was our first French tutor who was with us for one complete session. In the year 2008, Ms Sophie Oger was deputed as the French tutor. She was a part of our Institute of two sessions. Since August 2010, we have Ms. Fabien as our new French tutor.

The course offers the students the opportunity to be part of the educational exchange programme in near future. Many students of our Institute take up the course and some of the students who go to the French universities for their internship programmes are duly benefitted. Also a batch of 65 students from BITS were very keen to learn French and completed the course under the guidance of our French Tutor Ms Sophie Oger.
