My own experience is that industry is too willing to take trainees/interns if they are productive and not a hindrance to their working. If faculty at institute identifies the basic skill needs to gain experience in the industry, prepares the student for that and then send them to industry, they will be too willing to take them.

Indo German Technology Centre (IGTC) has very good understanding with local German Mfrs. Every management Graduate gets good exposure for 1-2 semesters with assigned Employer (locally or abroad) ….
Unfortunately, most of the Indian Industry is non-cooperative on this front … they take mandatory ITI Trainees also, only when arm-twisted …. This problem needs to be handled on various fronts …..

Engineering Colleges in the EU insist on two to three years industry experience or internship

The employability of engineering graduates in India has been a matter of concern for the last several decades. Many reports have stated that only 20-25% of the graduates are employable in industry. A recent report has mentioned that only 5% of computer science and information technology graduates (a majority of our engineers are in these disciplines) have any reasonable programming skills, which is the most basic skill for such a graduate. Another 15% can still be trained to perform tasks in IT industry.
Whenever a new report comes out, there are immediate calls for greater interaction between industry and academia and to have more industry-focussed curricula in colleges. And seeing that such calls have not had any impact on the ground level, AICTE has announced that such interaction will now be mandatory. Each college must have an industry consultation committee to rework the curriculum of each course taught there every year.
AICTE appears to have forgotten that it regulates only affiliated colleges, and it has very little regulatory control over universities. Affiliated colleges have no control over their curriculum. They teach the curriculum that the affiliating university decides. These universities are expected to have a Board of Studies for each program, and that board invariably has members from industry as well. So there is already an industry input to the curriculum design. Now, if a college creates such a committee and the industry person advises even small modifications to the courses, can the college implement these modifications? The answer, unfortunately, is in the negative for all colleges, barring a few "autonomous" ones.
