As a part of the pilot, SAP Labs will offer internships to selected students who will work in Whitefield, Bangalore for three days of the week and be on campus at Srishti for the remaining two days.

The total program duration is for two and a half years, during which the students will dedicate two years towards their academics and the remaining six months for induction into SAP Labs.

At SAP Labs, the students will initially work in two different UXD teams for two practical phases, each lasting 12 months. Based on fulfilling the academic criteria set by Srishti, they will be awarded an MA (Professional Practice) in Experience Design which is also accredited by the University of Mysore.
