Abstract

In today's engineering education, students need to learn a lot of theory and get hands-on experience. Traditionally, students receive theoretical engineering education on campus through direct instruction and laboratory experiences. On the other hand, engineering students gain on-the-job experience through hands-on experience or confrontation with real-world situations. This helps them determine whether their industry and skills are compatible. Industrial training gives students the chance to gain the most rewarding and enlightening work experience in related businesses for specialized industries like aerospace, electronics, and manufacturing. This paper examines the students' industrial training experience over a 12-week period of attachment, specifically determining whether the companies were successful in providing relevant engineering workplace experience. Students' industrial training experiences will be discussed, with both positive and negative aspects highlighted. Additionally, this study offers some recommendations for ensuring that businesses implement industrial training programs that meet faculty expectations.
