NHAI summer internship — apply by Apr 15

Students have until April 15, 2026 to apply for the National Highways Authority of India’s summer internship through the agency’s internship system. (nhai.gov.in) The National Highways Authority of India, which runs under India’s Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, told Parliament on January 29, 2026 that it had launched a dedicated internship programme and portal with the Department of Higher Education and the All India Council for Technical Education. (sansad.in) In that reply, the ministry said National Highways Authority of India plans to engage 500 interns a year, with a one-month winter internship and a two-month summer internship. It said students from civil engineering, computer science, information technology, electronics, instrumentation, data science, finance and law can be placed in roles tied to planning, tolling, analytics, land acquisition and programme support. (sansad.in) The internship portal is built to handle registration, profile creation, document uploads and applications in one place. Digital India Corporation, which describes the system, said institutes can review and recommend students before National Highways Authority of India shortlists candidates and issues offer letters. (dic.gov.in) That screening step makes the April 15 deadline more than a last-day formality. Students need time for institute verification, not just time to click submit. (dic.gov.in) The National Highways Authority of India says the internships are meant to put students inside live highway work, including project planning, construction supervision, operations, maintenance and technology use. The ministry told Parliament interns would work under Project Directors and technical divisions and get on-site exposure to infrastructure development. (sansad.in) An earlier National Highways Authority of India internship notice for Geographic Information System work shows how the agency structures these placements. That posting offered five positions at headquarters in Dwarka, New Delhi for up to two months, with stipends of 10,000 rupees a month for undergraduate students and 15,000 rupees for postgraduate students. (nhai.gov.in) That same notice required 70% marks, no backlogs, a final report, and at least 75% attendance for an experience certificate. It also said accommodation and travel were the intern’s responsibility and that internship work would remain the intellectual property of the National Highways Authority of India. (nhai.gov.in) The All India Council for Technical Education internship portal says its services are free for interns and organizations, and warns students to report anyone asking for fees in the name of mentorship or training. With the April 15, 2026 deadline one day away, the immediate task is to finish the application and get the institute side cleared. (internship.aicte-india.org)
