Internship @ CSD Hyderabad

About CSD 
CSD is an autonomous research institution supported by the Indian Council of Social Science Research, New Delhi, the Government of Telangana and Reserve Bank of India. CSD was founded by Dr. Durgabai Deshmukh in Delhi in 1962. The Southern Regional Centre, CSD, 
Hyderabad, was established in Hyderabad in 1967. CSD was set up as a think tank to keep a 
focus on the social aspects of development planning and to initiate policy oriented research 
on the social determinants of development – vital concerns in the early plan periods. 
Dr. Durgabai Deshmukh, legendary social worker and indefatigable institution builder, 
gathered around her the best minds to think through human social needs during the frenzied 
years of nation building. CSD is housed in its own 1.25-acre campus in the institutional area 
in Rajendranagar, Hyderabad. A spacious and well planned building with well maintained, 
sustainable green environs; internet access and connectivity; lecture halls and auditorium; and a modest library.
