Registrations for the Punjab government’s Chief Minister IT Internship Programme (CMITIP), implemented by the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB), are set to close soon.
The programme aims to improve employment prospects for young graduates by providing practical industry experience and connecting them with leading information technology companies across Punjab.
Under the initiative, more than 4,000 selected graduates will be placed in over 350 IT companies for a four-month internship. Participants will receive a monthly stipend of Rs50,000, funded by the provincial government, subject to satisfactory performance and submission of a degree verified by the Higher Education Commission (HEC).
PITB Chairman Faisal Yousaf said equipping young graduates with practical skills and better employment opportunities remained a key government priority. He added that the programme would help participants develop industry-relevant expertise, strengthen their professional capabilities and contribute to Punjab’s digital economy.
Applicants must hold a degree in Information Technology, Computer Science or a related discipline completed within the last four years. A valid Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC) and Punjab domicile are also mandatory.
