Peshawar Police to offer internships to students of Peshawar University

Peshawar University and the Capital City Police (CCP) Peshawar have signed an agreement under which internships would be granted to the students in order to help them get professional experience. Abbas Ahsan, the Capital City Police Officer (CCPO) of Peshawar, and Dr. Mohammad Idrees, the Vice Chancellor (VC) of Peshawar University, signed a MoU last week in an official ceremony conducted at the university.

Under the terms of the agreement, Peshawar Police will hire Peshawar University students as interns in several police stations throughout the provincial capital.

In the initial batch, 30 students from the Department of Social Work will be accepted. The students will be trained by the Peshawar Police Department to familiarize them with the policing system and to get professional experience that would benefit them in the future. To bridge the gap between the public and the police, the students will also promote a warm picture of the cops.

CCPO Peshawar, Abbas Ahsan, stated after signing the agreement that Peshawar Police is pleased to have collaborated with Peshawar University, and that working with Peshawar Police will be a fantastic experience for them.
