SP Jain School of Global Management has recently placed three Bachelor of Data Science (BDS) students as interns with Adaptive Investments, a US-based FinTech company. Our students – Aryaman Jena (BDS 2018 Intake), Tushar Sonthalia (BDS 2019 Intake) and Abhishek Tiwari (BDS 2019 Intake) – have been onboarded as Software Engineering Interns for a period of 6-8 weeks and are convertible based on performance.

During this internship, our students are assisting the company in developing and deploying the algorithms for AWS Lambda, a revolutionary serverless compute service.

  • Internships*, during Year 1 and 2, give you hands-on experience in identifying and interpreting actionable information from raw data and using them to make informed business decisions.
  • Academic partnerships with AWS, Oracle, Dell and SAS Institute lets students access world-class training and mentorship on cutting-edge technologies.
  • SP Jain has been accredited by the Data Science Council of America (DASCA) based on the strength of its Data Science program and, as a result, students have the opportunity to earn a certification from DASCA, the world’s leading standards and credentialing body for the Data Science profession.
  • Graduate with an Australian degree and apply for a 2-year Post Study Work Visa** in Australia – an emerging hub for data science.

Admissions are currently open for the October 2020 Intake.
