Summer Placements for Class 11

The class 11 students worked for 4 weeks in an organization of their choice. The program was a great success and the school received a positive feedback from both the students and the organizations they worked at. . Here are a few comments from the students themselves. Incidently the favourite employer was Maurya Sheraton(I wonder why???). 

"It was a great experience of corporate life. We saw how hard people were working," says Simit Batra, who did a research on AC and Microwave markets at Electrolux Kelvinator. 

"It was a learning experience, says Daksh Varma, who developed a computer interface for teaching electricity to class 9 students at NIIT 

"We saw cutting edge technology and machinery. We learnt procedures and observed work. It was an interesting experience," says Ashutosh Kumar, who participated in a genetics program at JNU 

"I made a website in JAVA script, learnt HTML coding and making a basic website. I also got familiar to XHTML and other Extended Markup Languages. It gave me an insight into what I might want to pursue as a career," says Vidur Bhargava, who did software programming during his stint of summer training
