PrajniX Praxis is a structured 12-week internship programme where engineering students work on real industry projects, guided by working professionals, and graduate with a verifiable portfolio and certificate.
Most "internships" are busywork. Praxis is built on one idea: you learn by doing real work, reviewed by real people, with real consequences.
Every project is drawn from real business domains — e-commerce platforms, ML recommendation engines, cloud pipelines, threat detection systems. Not toy problems.
Real deliverablesYour mentor is a working software professional. They review your code within 24 hours, sign off milestones, hold weekly 1:1s, and write your completion reference.
Not a TA, not a botEvery week, an industry practitioner shares their real-world experience — war stories, career pivots, technical deep-dives, how things actually work at a company.
Live, not recordedEvery pull request is read and reviewed by a human. You get specific line-by-line feedback, not a pass/fail score. That's how real engineers improve.
Human feedback loopYour project repo is public. Your commit history is real. Any recruiter can see exactly what you built, how you worked, and the standard of your code.
Beats a resume bulletYou work alongside other students across different colleges. You review each other's code, share your learnings in Discord, and build a professional network from Day 1.
Cross-college networkFour clear milestones, each with specific acceptance criteria, signed off by your mentor. You always know what "done" means — no ambiguity, no scope creep.
Clear progress barGit branching, CI/CD pipelines, code review, Kanban project boards. The same stack used by engineering teams worldwide. You'll be fluent before you graduate.
Job-ready skillsA public verification URL, employer-checkable, LinkedIn-shareable. Not a participation trophy — only issued after your mentor signs off all four milestones.
Earned, not givenSimple, structured, and relentless.
Submit your application. Admin reviews and places you in one of 5 domain tracks with a cohort and an industry mentor.
Meet your mentor. Get access to the GitHub repo. Define milestones. Set up local environment. First PRs merged.
Weekly PR cycles, mentor code reviews, 1:1s, weekly logs, and live webinars. Four milestone signoffs along the way.
Present your demo. Get your verifiable certificate. Your GitHub repo is now a live portfolio piece for recruiters.
Each track runs a live real-world project for the cohort duration. Pick the domain where you want to grow — or the one that will accelerate your career.
End-to-end web platform with real users, real API, real database.

Every week during the programme, an industry practitioner joins live to share their experience. Real stories, real career paths, real technical depth.
The Praxis certificate is issued only after your mentor signs off all four milestones. It comes with a permanent public URL that any employer can check, and a PDF you can attach to job applications.
Every mentor is a working software professional who reviews real code, signs off milestones, and puts their name on your certificate.

Praxis works for you if you recognise yourself in any of these.
2nd or 3rd year · Any branch
You've done coursework but you have nothing concrete to show a recruiter. You need a project with real commits, a mentor reference, and a certificate that proves you shipped something.
Wants to move to tech · Any year
You're in a non-CS branch but you're teaching yourself to code. Praxis is a credible way to prove you can work on real software alongside CS graduates — without a CS degree.
Final year · Already coding
You can already code, but you've never worked in a professional setting. You've never done code review, never shipped with CI/CD, never worked with a senior's feedback on your architecture choices.
"Before Praxis I'd only written code for assignments. Getting my first PR reviewed by my mentor — with actual line-by-line comments — was humbling and eye-opening at the same time. I got the same kind of feedback in my first job and I already knew how to handle it."
"The weekly webinars were the part I didn't expect to value so much. Hearing an engineer at Zepto talk about what their incident response looks like — that's not something any textbook covers. It made me understand what a career in software actually looks like."
"I used the certificate link directly in my resume. Three out of four interviews I did last month mentioned that the interviewer had clicked through and looked at my GitHub repo. That's a conversation starter I wouldn't have had otherwise."
Applications for Cohort 2 close on 30 July 2026. Seats are limited to 20 students. Apply now — shortlisting is based on intent, not marks.
