Description

Architecture Firm in Jaipur – Connecting Heritage and Modernity

The internship is offered by one of India's most prestigious architecture firms, which has completed numerous large-scale projects across India and Dubai, including luxury hotels, residential complexes, shopping malls, hospitals, and iconic structures such as the Patrika Gate in Jaipur, a famous tourist attraction. 

The company's philosophy is rooted in postmodernism, harmoniously blending the historical and cultural identity of a place with contemporary design. Their work reflects a deep appreciation for the history and traditions of each location, integrating them into modern, functional spaces. The company aims to create architecture that embodies the cultural identity of a place, tells stories, and transforms architecture into art, rather than designing generic buildings that could stand anywhere in the world. It places great emphasis on preserving and reviving architectural traditions to ensure that cultural heritage lives on in modern constructions.

The company has significantly shaped Jaipur’s architectural landscape and is responsible for two of the "8 Wonders of Jaipur":

  • World Trade Park Jaipur – An iconic commercial complex that merges futuristic architecture with Rajasthan’s cultural identity.
  • Patrika Gate – An artistically designed gateway reflecting Jaipur’s rich architectural heritage.


A team of over 70 professionals provides architectural services, civil & structural engineering, landscape and garden design, MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) planning, lighting design, fire safety, urban planning, smart city development, interior design, quantity surveying, material research, historic building renovation planning, sculpture and painting work, 3D visualization, and projection mapping.

Unlike many architecture firms that start digitally, this company emphasizes traditional creativity. Every project begins with hand-drawn sketches to establish a deeper connection to the design process before incorporating digital tools.

You will also have the opportunity to observe construction projects on-site as they come to life.


Internship at the Architecture Firm

As an intern at this architecture firm, you will have the rare opportunity to directly participate in creative processes that influence some of the most exciting architectural projects. You can attend discussions with lead architects, witness the thought process, and experience the evolution of a project firsthand.

Interns are expected to actively engage in the creative process and ask questions. You will learn how and why architectural decisions are made, considering aesthetics, functionality, and cultural context.

You will not primarily be assigned technical tasks, as the company has dedicated staff for that work, and projects are often under significant time pressure. Instead, you will be involved in sketching and design studies. You should have a passion for art and architecture and be eager to contribute to creative processes.

This internship is aimed at students of architecture, civil engineering, mechanical architecture, and interior design. Applicants should be disciplined and curious.

The minimum duration of the internship is four weeks.


Civil Engineering Services and Project Management for Large-Scale Construction Projects

The internship is offered by a company in Jaipur specializing in civil engineering services and project management for large-scale construction and infrastructure projects. With an experienced team of 35 engineers, architects, and project management experts, the company plans, controls, and monitors the implementation of complex construction projects, ensuring that they are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

As a civil engineering intern, you will be involved in the following aspects of construction projects:

  • Structural Analysis & Design – Assisting in the planning of foundations, beams, columns, and other structural components to ensure stability and safety.
  • Construction Supervision & Execution – Monitoring progress on-site, ensuring quality, and verifying compliance with construction plans.
  • Material Selection & Testing – Learning about selecting suitable building materials and testing them for strength, durability, and compliance with standards.
  • Construction Techniques & Methods – Gaining insights into different construction approaches, including modern and sustainable methods.
  • Surveying & Mapping – Supporting land surveys, leveling, and mapping for precise construction planning.
  • Safety & Building Regulations – Ensuring adherence to building codes, safety guidelines, and environmental standards.
  • Construction Project Management:
    • Project Planning & Scheduling – Developing detailed construction schedules, setting milestones, and managing project timelines.
    • Cost Management – Budget planning, cost control, and identifying potential savings.
    • Quality Control & Risk Management – Ensuring construction quality, identifying potential risks, and developing strategies to mitigate them.
    • Coordination with Various Stakeholders – Collaborating with architects, project managers, contractors, and regulatory authorities.


The company manages a wide range of projects, including residential complexes, industrial buildings, schools, hotels, and large-scale infrastructure developments. It often works on behalf of renowned architecture firms.


Internship in Civil Engineering

This internship offers hands-on experience in civil engineering and provides both technical and practical insights into the construction industry. Additionally, participants gain knowledge of construction project management, giving them a valuable advantage for their future careers.

The internship is designed for students in their third year or higher, as well as graduates of civil engineering, architecture, project management, and related fields.

There are always construction projects and tasks in Jaipur, so traveling within India is not required as part of the internship. However, if you wish to visit a remote construction project, it is possible, but travel costs must be covered by you.

The minimum duration of the internship is six weeks.
