The six guest French students from Enseeiht institute, Toulouse, France, Cheik, Peirre, Ettine, Yve , Thibhaut and Erich, thoroughly enjoyed their stay and were particularly impressed with this opportunity to be close to the mighty Himalayas and get familiar with the renowned Indian culture. Students of AITS also got an opportunity of becoming aware of international trends in higher education. A group of four students of B. Tech. Year IV of AITS also underwent a similar internship at Polytech NantesInstitute in France during the current year’s summer vacation.

AITS’ foreign exchange programme, now two years old, is set for expansion with more tie-ups with foreign educational institutions under process. The programme has been so designed that students are given the option of choosing from a diverse range of projects encompassing various areas of technology. The intent behind such programmes is to provide students pursuing a professional qualification at AITS to have an opportunity of improving their employability by attaching a foreign tag to their qualification. The value added by this effort is expected to be not only be by way of greater technical expertise but also enhanced emotional versatility, thus making the students concerned better professionals capable of managing workforce from different cultures.
