The curriculum design is an integral part of engineering degree, which is nowadays taking a paradigm shift. The syllabi for engineering graduates a decade ago was completely academic but now there is a scope for more real time analysis, which makes the students, be industry ready. This is more beneficial as it will require less training period for the students, when they are absorbed in their respective industry. Therefore, the internship programme has been included in the curriculum of most of the universities and being a credit course, it allows more students to participate. In addition, if the interns score credits for the same, the method of evaluation and assessment tools needs proper design. Our Textbook Companion Internship was offered online during the outburst of pandemic (COVID-19).The main objectives of this internship is to provide an integrated learning experience, i.e., integration of theoretical knowledge and software tools (Simulation based study) i.e. essential to bridge academic-industry gaps. The objective is achieved by modifying the assigned tasks to interns on daily basis and evaluating their work and by giving feedback. This has helped the interns to understand the theoretical concepts together with simulations.
