What Is the CM IT Internship Program 2026?

The CM IT Internship Program is a Chief Minister Punjab initiative, run through the Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) under the “Work for Punjab” banner. Its purpose is simple: fresh IT graduates often have a degree but no industry experience, and companies ask for experience before giving a job. This program closes that gap by placing new graduates inside leading IT companies, where they work on real projects and learn how the industry actually works.

• More than 4,000 internship positions are available across Punjab.
• Interns will be placed with leading IT companies, not in a classroom or a training hall.
• The focus is on hands-on, practical experience that makes your CV strong.
• Opportunities are spread over 40+ domains, so almost every IT graduate can find a matching field.
• A monthly stipend of Rs 50,000 supports you during the internship period.

Fields and Domains You Can Choose

You are not limited to one or two fields. The program covers more than 40 domains, and you can choose the one that matches your degree and your interest. The main fields announced in the official poster include:

• Web Development
• Software Development
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Mobile App Development
• Quality Assurance (QA)
• Digital and Social Media Marketing
• SEO Expert
• Graphic Designing
• Business Development
• And many more positions across 40+ domains

Pick your domain carefully. Choose the field where you already have some skill and where you want to build your career, because four months of focused work in the right field can decide your first job.

Who Can Apply — Eligibility Criteria

The eligibility criteria are clear and simple. You can apply if you meet all of the following conditions:

• You have an IT, Computer Science (CS) or relevant degree.
• Your degree was completed within the last 4 years. If your degree is older than four years, you are not eligible in this round.
• You have a valid CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card).
• You hold a Punjab domicile. Candidates domiciled in other provinces cannot apply.
• Your degree should be HEC-verified, because the monthly stipend is linked with a verified degree — get your degree verified by HEC if you have not done it yet.

Stipend, Duration and Important Conditions

The stipend is the most attractive part of this program, but read the condition written with it. Selected interns will receive Rs 50,000 per month, and the internship duration is 4 months. This means an intern who completes the full term with satisfactory performance can receive up to Rs 200,000 in total during the program.

• The stipend is subject to monthly performance — your attendance, discipline and work quality matter every month.
• The stipend is also linked with an HEC-verified degree, so complete your degree verification in time.
• The internship runs for 4 months with the host company.
• Treat it like a real job from day one; your performance report is what makes this stipend continue.
