About
I’d like to introduce you to Ignitus (A Non-Profit Organization for the welfare of student community ) that helps students and professionals get handpicked top-quality global research and industrial internships, for free!
We are creating a global open-source platform where anyone enrolled in an UG/PG program at any university can look for Internship/Research opportunities, what differentiate us from similar job/internship platforms is our platform is devoted to education involving students/researchers/professors and opportunities related to education only, no involvement of startups/companies/job seekers etc. we are still in a phase of building it but our idea is to act as an opportunity bridge between students & Universities.
Our only goal is- 'Skyrocketing a students’ career by providing best global opportunities'. The platform has got exponential growth after successful internship completion by the associated students with researchers from SAIL (Stanford AI Lab) and Oxford University.
Ignitus is committed to bringing together multiple such initiatives for a grand scale open-source project development program for women. We are honoured to have among us more than admirable leaders in the fight for equal opportunities for women at Woo-Tech & GirlsScript Foundation & LEAN IN INDIA.
You can check out this YouTube Channel to get an overview of what we are all about.
We are organising the following programs on a global scale where students can participate remotely to improve their skills and get real-world software development experience.
Ignitus Scholar helps beginners climb through the steep learning curve in starting computer science research and publish their own papers.
Students will work on research projects with graduate students, researchers and PostDocs of top universities including Stanford, MIT, Harvard, Oxford, UC Berkeley, CMU, Yale, Princeton etc. The end goal is to publish top-quality papers through collaborative effort.
Ignitus scholar consists of 100+ applicants who have worked at Deep Learning at Mercedes-Benz, Harvard Innovation Labs, UC Berkeley, CMU, Oxford, ETH Zurich etc.
We have come a long way from humble beginnings, we now have 700+ targeted students, researchers who have actively volunteered to be a part of our organization. We aim to serve a larger student community in future.
A large number of students across the world can learn from experiences of each and every student and inputs, helping newcomers by answering their Queries related to M.S, Research internships, SOP etc.
