Machine Learning Intern

Suvidha Foundation (Suvidha Mahila Mandal)•  July 2023 - September 2023

I had the incredible opportunity to be part of the Machine Learning Internship at Suvidha Shiksha, and it has been a transformative experience for me. This internship perfectly aligned with my passion for leveraging Machine Learning for social impact, and I couldn't have asked for a more rewarding and fulfilling experience. During the one-month internship, I was actively involved in a Machine Learning project that aimed to support Suvidha Foundation's Girl Child Education campaign. Working with real-world datasets allowed me to gain invaluable hands-on experience and contribute to developing solutions that can truly improve educational opportunities for underprivileged girls. What sets this internship apart is the chance to make a tangible difference in the lives of those facing significant barriers to education. It was heartening to see how the work we did directly impacted the lives of these girls and opened up new possibilities for their future. In addition to the technical aspects, I had the opportunity to engage in fundraising efforts for the campaign. This allowed me to explore my creative side by creating content for social media, organizing events, and reaching out to potential donors. It was incredibly rewarding to witness the community's support and come together for such a noble cause. The remote work arrangement was highly convenient, and the team at Suvidha Shiksha was incredibly supportive and collaborative throughout the internship. Despite the virtual setup, communication was seamless, and I always felt connected and valued as a team member. Overall, this internship has been a game-changer for me. It provided a platform to apply my technical skills for a greater purpose and instilled in me a deeper understanding of the impact of education on communities.
