Introduction Demand for undergraduate Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) education continues to grow,driven by persistent need for professionals with technical skills. In addition to core technical knowledge,students embarking on a career in CSE must be ready to combine theory and practice in a context wherethe underlying technology continually changes, projects are large-scale and collaborative, and professionalresponsibility and ethics-based decision-making are critical when products are adopted widely. Manystudents seek hands-on industry internship experiences to complement their in-class instruction andprepare for these
