Testimonials

What Students Say

InternEdge turned my fascination with robotics into a tangible achievement. I built an autonomous robot, a project that combined hardware design, programming, and engineering skills. My mentor guided me through challenges and encouraged me to think critically about efficiency. The process of troubleshooting and refining the robot was both challenging and rewarding. InternEdge helped me discover my potential and deepened my passion for creating solutions through robotics.

Credge provided me with a platform to develop a chatbot that provides mental health resources and answers user queries compassionately. I learned how to train machine learning models, process text data, and refine user interactions. Seeing my chatbot provide meaningful assistance to users was deeply rewarding. This project not only strengthened my college application but also demonstrated the power of AI in improving lives.

The InternEdge Program helped me identify a problem statement and then helped me and my team build a project which I can showcase to my dream colleges. This project is one of the important activities that I have on my resume and my common app activities list. The project helped me demonstrate my creative and problem solving skills, leadership skills and collaboration skills

Also the guidance and advice I received from Credge instructors and mentors were exquisite. Breaking down high-level concepts of AI is no easy task, but our Credge mentor did so at a level high schoolers could understand. Our mentor was also very accommodating, considering the number of activities we had in high school. I would highly recommend the InternEdge program to all high school students.
