From the EAC manual 2012 It is an exposure to professional engineering practice in an engineering-practice environment Industrial training shall be for a minimum of 8 weeks of continuous training. One credit hour is allocated for every two weeks of training subject to a maximum of six credit hours. The training shall be adequately structured, supervised and recorded in log books/report. The industrial training must be conducted before the final semester From the EAC Manual 2012 Familiarity with all common engineering processes is essential and exposure at a practical level to a wide variety of processes is required at a level appropriate to the young professional .it is clearly desirable for students to get a feel of the skills involved, however, the central aim is to achieve appreciation, not to acquire craft skills. ..many of the latest processes and large scale or costly operations can only be the subject of observation or demonstration, and visits to engineering works may be helpful in many such cases.
Objectives of Industrial Training..from our perspective.. Expose students to engineering practices in the industrial sector under the supervision of experienced engineer or technical staff. Expose students on matters relating to human relations, engineering management, human resource management and the like in the industrial sector.

What if you dont get any offer? If you have applied & the company keep you wait for looongg time : RIGOROUSLY FOLLOW UP !!..CALL/EMAIL with appropriate manners. Keep on searching! EVERYDAY THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPANIES IN MALAYSIA!!
Important reminder Dont forget to register for this course from SMP during PRE- REGISTRATION.!! Plan your activities so that it will not clash with your industrial training !!... If you missed xx days during training, you have to replace xx days, so that, complete 10 weeks (5 days x 10weeks = 50 working days). However, this does not include emergency leave and 3 days leave. Do not attempt to argue of the payment that the company willing to pay (some company even dont provide any allowances) Constantly check for new LI offer from Admin Officer (Ground Floor FKE)- If Any. Constantly search for LI placements until accepted Constantly look for new post on the Facebook group DO NOT APPLY FROM AGENCIES WHICH HIRES PERSONNEL (agensi mencari pekerjaan)!!. If you failed to get placement, you might not be able to graduate on timeso, take this matter seriously!
FAQ Which/what type of company I need to apply?- preferably, any company which will make you learn something relevant to the engineering working environment. e.g. a cookie factory, but, have electrical department. What if the company wants us to stay up to 12 weeks?- Yes you can,but, insurance will cover only 10 weeks & the extra time is at your own responsiblities(e.g. if missed 1 st week of class, need to inform lecturer early). Can I join MASUM or any other activities?- YES, but you must replace the number of days missed. Can I take leave? Yes, 3 days max, other than MC or other emergencies. Must keep the letter and give to your appointed faculty supervisors Can I change place after start LI?. YES, with permission from your appointed faculty supervisors.
Final words.. Good Luck in job hunting, or, well hunt you until you get your placement !!!!
