Foundation Builder: Build Your CS Base is a 5-week internship-cum-training programme crafted for first-year Computer Science and IT students who want to lay a solid foundation in programming, essential developer tools, and problem-solving.
This hands-on program teaches you not just how to write code, but how to think like a developer, manage your code professionally, and present your work with polish. You’ll build core skills in C and Python, master tools like Git, GitHub, LaTeX, and Linux, and complete portfolio-ready projects along the way.
Whether you’re a beginner or someone who wants to restart with clarity, this is your launchpad to becoming a confident, modern-day developer.
🎯 Who is this for?
• First-year CS/IT students
• Students from other branches who want to switch to tech
