Now in its sixth year, the Tata ISES internship scheme offers current LSE students the opportunity to do a two-month-long social enterprise, corporate social responsibility, environment or development-based project in India. In 2015, LSE has eight projects covering areas including entrepreneurship, healthcare, sustainability and gender-based self-help projects.

One previous intern described the Tata ISES as an “invaluable learning experience”, adding “not only does it give you a chance to get to know Indian culture from a local perspective, but also teaches you important lessons on the field of development.”

Read India at LSE posts by last year’s interns Ai Naimiki, who worked on a CSR project, and Dayanna Velarde-Rubalcava, who conducted research into affirmative action in India.

Applications are now open for internships that will commence in July 2015. The closing date for applications is Sunday, 1st March 2015. Visit the Tata ISES website for further information about the scheme, projects and eligibility.
