The internship covers a wide range of digital fields including artificial intelligence, web and app development, UI/UX design, graphic design, data science, digital marketing, and cybersecurity. Through direct exposure to industry work, interns will gain practical experience, receive mentoring from seasoned professionals, and develop both technical and professional competencies that are essential for a successful career in technology.

Eligible applicants include fresh graduates and individuals who have completed their studies in the past three years, holding a domicile of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa or its merged districts. Candidates will be placed with IT Park companies across the province, as well as at KPITB headquarters and the Digital Transformation Unit. Applicants from software houses are required to hold a master’s degree in IT, computer science, software engineering, or related ICT fields. The selection process includes initial screening, interviews, and skill assessments to ensure a suitable match for available roles.
