2) Join many scholarship websites, groups and see their postings for internships
3) The internships, I mentioned below are just few, more you can find by searching as said above
4) Deadlines mentioned below can be changed as some programs are not open yet, but dates have been
mentioned based on previous year’s deadlines. But previous years deadlines can change, so keep on
