Will conducting the Dual study internship at a GJU DS company bind the DS student to work with this company after graduation?
In principle, the concept of a DS track is based on linking the dual study student with a possible job opportunity through interning for three consecutive summer semesters.
The contract between the student and the company clarifies the situation for if the company offers a suitable job opportunity for the graduating intern, then the student will need to consider. A penalty may be included in the contract as in returning the salaries to the company if the DS student does accept the suitable offer. But this his has not happened to date.
Can a DS student change their company after the first year?
As a first step you need to familiarize with the company that you are applying to before starting the internship and if any challenge is faced please contact your Assistant Dean to help settle any query or challenge that arises while you are serving. It is not advisable to change your company but if this happens the student will need to go through the process of applying to the companies independently in the company day and usually it is hard to locate another company which means he/she can no longer stay as a DS student.
Can a DS student enroll in other online classes @ the university while he is conducting his summer internship?
NO, he has to follow accurately the DS academic plan.
