GL Bajaj Broadens Student Learning with Internships in Cyber Forensics and Global Tech Firms

VMPL
New Delhi [India], July 28: GL Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management, recognised among the top engineering colleges in Greater Noida, has built its academic framework around industry-oriented learning, practical training, technical skill development, and structured exposure to the corporate and research sectors. Known as a top institute for placements, the institution treats internships as a core pillar of its academic ecosystem, ensuring students gain real-world experience while bridging the gap between classroom learning and the evolving demands of industry.
This approach is reflected in a recent series of internship placements secured by its students across leading organisations in defence research, cybersecurity forensics, enterprise technology, and corporate management.
The opportunities span multiple disciplines, including Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, and Business Administration, enabling students to work on projects ranging from backend software engineering and quantum technology research to mobile forensics and corporate summer internship programmes at global technology companies. These achievements further reinforce GL Bajaj's reputation as one of the best institutes for placements, consistently providing students with exposure to high-impact industry environments before graduation.
Among the standout achievements is an internship carrying a monthly stipend of ₹1.5 lakh. Ayush Tripathi, a Computer Science and Engineering student from the 2027 batch, secured the opportunity with global technology company Eightfold.ai. A stipend of this scale for an undergraduate internship is uncommon and reflects the institute's strong industry connect, rigorous academic preparation, and commitment to creating career-ready professionals. The achievement further strengthens GL Bajaj's standing as a top institute for placements, where students regularly secure opportunities with leading national and global organisations.
Defence and Cybersecurity Research Draw Student Interest
Two students from GL Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management (GLBITM) have secured research internships with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), an institution widely regarded as a demanding avenue for undergraduate research exposure given its focus on applied and strategic scientific work.
Sundaram Gupta, a final-year Bachelor of Technology student in Information Technology from the 2023 - 2027 batch, was selected as a Research Intern at DRDO's Scientific Analysis Group (SAG) through a competitive resume screening and technical interview process. His work spans backend development and quantum technology research, involving the design of RESTful APIs, database work and scalable server-side applications, alongside research into quantum computing concepts, secure communication and their applications in defence and next-generation computing systems. Gupta said the internship had given him exposure to backend engineering, microservices-based development, research methodologies, problem-solving and collaborative teamwork in a professional environment.
Samriddhi Srivastava, a Computer Science and Engineering (Artificial Intelligence) student from the 2024 - 2028 batch, has been selected as a Research Intern at DRDO's Directorate of Planning and Coordination (DP&C), where she is contributing to strategic planning functions within the organisation, a role distinct from Gupta's technical assignment, reflecting the range of functions available within the same parent organisation.
A third student has entered the cybersecurity domain directly through law enforcement. Ritik Bhandari, a Computer Science and Engineering (Artificial Intelligence) student from the 2024 - 2028 batch, has secured an internship at the Cyber Police Station in East District, Delhi, working in mobile forensics under the Indian Forensic Science Organisation (IFSO) and national cybersecurity forensics law. The placement gives an undergraduate student direct exposure to forensic investigation methods used in active cybercrime cases, a domain not typically accessible through conventional corporate internships.

Global Technology Firms Offer High-Value Stipends
Beyond Tripathi's placement at Eightfold.ai, two more students have secured internships at global technology firms carrying notable stipends. Anjali Rawat and Apoorv Saxena, both Computer Science and Engineering students from the 2027 batch, have secured internships at Autodesk with a stipend of Rs 55,000 per month each.
Separately, Rehan Shamim (Computer Science and Engineering) and Raghav Agrawal (Computer Science and Design) have secured internships at financial technology firm Arcesium, carrying a stipend of Rs 60,000 per month. Arcesium's work in financial technology infrastructure positions the internship within a sector distinct from the consumer and enterprise software roles secured by other students, adding to the range of industries represented across this set of placements.
Management Students Enter Corporate Internship Programmes
The internship activity has not been limited to engineering students. Three MBA students, Deepak Kumar, Gauri Mehrotra and Shilpa Karn, all from the 2027 batch, have been selected for the Summer Internship Programme at Amazon, extending the institute's internship footprint into management and business functions alongside its technical programmes.
Separately, Arbaz Nafees, a Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science) student from the 2028 batch, has secured a Summer Internship 2026 position at the Vicharanashala Lab for Education Design (VLED Lab) at IIT Ropar, following an evaluation process. His work involves contributing to real-world, India-centric open-source software projects, with his contributions expected to be recorded on a live, publicly accessible repository in a format that gives an undergraduate student verifiable, public-facing technical credit early in his academic career.
Industry Readiness and Broader Significance
For engineering and management institutes across India, internship outcomes have increasingly become a parallel benchmark to final placement statistics when assessing how prepared a graduating cohort is for professional work. Recruiters and academic evaluators often treat a student's ability to secure a research, cybersecurity or corporate internship mid-course as an early indicator of technical and professional readiness, since such roles typically require candidates to work on live systems, active cases or ongoing research rather than academic simulations.
Recognised as one of the best institutes for placements, GL Bajaj Institute of Technology and Management said its training and placement ecosystem is designed to help students identify, prepare for, and secure high-value internship and placement opportunities throughout their academic journey. Through industry collaborations, skill development programmes, and career-focused mentoring, the institute aims to equip students with the practical knowledge and professional exposure required by leading employers. While the institute has not released aggregate figures for the total number of internship offers, participating companies, or overall placement statistics for the current academic year, its consistent focus on industry readiness continues to strengthen its reputation as a top institute for placements in North India.
The diverse internships secured this season across defence research, cyber forensics, global technology companies, and corporate management programmes demonstrate the breadth of opportunities available to GL Bajaj students. Rather than being concentrated in a single industry, these placements reflect the institute's strong industry connect and multidisciplinary approach to learning. As one of the best institutes for placements, GL Bajaj continues to prepare students for careers across emerging technologies, research organisations, and global enterprises. While future placement outcomes will depend on individual performance and market conditions, the current internship portfolio highlights the institute's commitment to industry-oriented education, experiential learning, and producing career-ready graduates capable of succeeding in competitive professional environments.
