Skin in the game

The AI Guru University Internship Program

Students from Indian universities and top-tier US AI programs work alongside AI Guru engineers on production AI systems used by enterprise customers across BFSI, manufacturing, and IT services.

Most AI training companies treat universities as customers. AI Guru treats universities as both customers and talent partners. Through our University Internship Program, we bring strong students from partner universities into the team working on MillMind, FlowBuilder, AgentGuru, and the rest of our 20-product portfolio.

Where Our Interns Come From

Students from six universities have completed AI Guru internship engagements to date. The cohort spans Indian higher education and top-tier US AI programs.

Indian Universities

Marwadi University

Multi-year academic engagement

Sardar Patel University

Academic partnership and student engagement

Silver Oak University

Student engagement

US Universities

Georgia Tech

Students from the College of Computing

Carnegie Mellon University

Students from the School of Computer Science

University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Students from the Grainger College of Engineering

To date, more than 20 students from these universities have come through the program. We do not run public application cycles — internships happen through our existing university relationships. Universities interested in adding their students to the program can reach out below.

What Interns Actually Work On

Interns are placed into one of three engineering pods, depending on their interests and the team's current needs. Every pod is shipping to real customers.

Production AI Systems

Contributing to MillMind (paper-mill operations AI), Plazee (commercial real estate AI), or DocIQ (document intelligence). Real customers, real production code, real review cycles.

No-Code AI Platform

Contributing to FlowBuilder, AI Guru's no-code automation platform — building integrations, refining the AI workflow generator, and supporting the platform's enterprise users.

Multilingual Voice AI

Contributing to Vaja.ai — sub-500ms latency voice AI in 100+ languages. Pod work spans speech recognition, language modelling, and on-device inference for regulated industries.

Why This Matters for Universities

A real outlet for top students

Top students in any AI program need somewhere to take their skills past the curriculum. AI Guru provides that outlet. Strong student capstone projects sometimes lead to internship invitations directly.

Concrete proof of skin-in-the-game

Most AI training providers teach but do not hire from the universities they teach at. We do both. That changes the relationship from vendor to partner.

Resume and placement quality

Internship engagements at AI Guru produce demonstrable production work — code in shipped products, written technical artifacts, customer-facing deliverables.

The India + US bridge

Students from Indian universities work in the same engineering team as students from Georgia Tech, Carnegie Mellon, and UIUC. The cross-pollination matters — for both groups.

Selection and Process

The Internship Program does not run public application cycles. Internships happen through our existing university relationships — typically introduced by faculty, by Heads of Department, or by Training & Placement Officers. Selection is based on a project-based evaluation, not on coursework grades. Interns committed to the program are paid a stipend during their engagement.

For Universities — How to Add Your Students

Universities interested in adding their students to the program can reach out through the contact form. The first step is usually a 30-minute call to understand the university's academic calendar, the typical student profile, and how internship credits are recognised. From there, we agree on a small first cohort — typically two to four students — and scale based on outcomes.

Note: this page does not invite individual students to apply. The CTA below is for universities (faculty, HoDs, TPOs). Students looking to learn AI directly should explore our courses on Coursera and Udemy.
