Obtaining Industrial Placement

One academic staff from each engineering discipline has been appointed as Adviser for

Industrial Training. Contact her/him to request a letter from the Department confirming that

you are a student of SRM University, and supporting your efforts to find an industrial

placement.

It is the responsibility of each student to obtain her/his own industrial placement. The Adviser

might assist you with a list of possible contacts within the industry. If you have any doubts or

questions about a proposed employment, you should consult the Adviser for Industrial Training

in your discipline. You may also consult other academic staff on the availability of Industrial

Training.

The Industrial Training Report

An Industrial Training report should be prepared for each period of approved

employment. The report is expected to demonstrate development of practical and professional

skills in Engineering through technical experience and application of theoretical knowledge.

Development of skills in dealing with people, and communication skills form part of the training

experience. Students should seek advice from their employers to ensure that no confidential

material is included into the report. The student should be able to present the report to

prospective employers, as a complement to their degree. The following should be observed:

i. Length of training

ii. Preliminary information

iii. Technical report/diary

References should be made in the text to books, technical papers, standards etc., used during

the training period and should be listed.

Finally, a conclusion should include comprehensive comments on the type and value of

experience gained, and how this relates to your professional career.

A copy of the report should be submitted to your employer, another copy to the Department

(through the respective Adviser). Students should also retain a personal copy of the report.

Guideline for Preparation of Industrial Training Report

Introduction

The purpose of the Industrial Training is to provide exposure for the students on

practical engineering fields. Through this exposure, students will have better

understanding of engineering practice in general and sense of frequent and possible

problems. This training is part of the learning process. So, the exposure that uplifts the

knowledge and experience of a student needs to be properly documented in the form of

a report. Through this report, the experience gain can be delivered to their peers. A

properly prepared report can facilitate the presentation of the practical experience in an

orderly, precise and interesting manner.

Purpose of the Report

a) Put down in writing the record of the training experience i.e personal performance

reflection;

b) Implanting engineering expertise onto the students, that is, preparation of technical

reports, communications, technical evaluation and design;

c) Means of summarizing the experience of a student;

d) Train student in effective writing as a preparation for the Final Year Project.

Contents and Format of Report

The procedure for preparation of the report has to follow the format determined by the

Faculty based on the guidelines below.

a) General Report Format

b) The report has to be typewritten on white A4 size paper, font-size of 12 points with

type face of Times New Roman has to be used throughout the report, with line

spacing of 1.5. The report has to be properly bound with ‘staple and tape binding’.

b) Front Cover Format

Students are advised to use ‘310 gram Whiteart Card’ in as the front cover. The

format for the front cover should be as shown in appendix.

c) Abstract/Preface

This section of the report should consist of brief description of the following:

i. Activities of the Organization

ii. Summary of the Report

iii. Acknowledgement

This section of the report is limited to two (2) pages only.

d) Table of Contents

figure or table must be mentioned in the main text.

b) List of Notations and Symbols

If the report contains notations and symbols, the full definition must be given

when each notation or symbol first appeared in the main text. The list of notations and

symbols with the full definitions can be placed after ‘Table of Contents’.

Every appendix must have a title and be mentioned in the main text where appropriate.

All page numbers must for appendixes must be continual from the main text. DO NOT include

irrelevant materials, e.g. brochures from the organizations, order forms, organization

newsletters and similar materials.

Completion of Industrial Training

At completion of a training period, a confirmation letter must be obtained from your

employer. Industrial Training Report is to be submitted to the department within 7 days after

the completion of Industrial Training.

Upon approval of your Industrial Training report by the department, this confirmation letter will

be included in your student file, as evidence of a successfully completed industrial experience.

Administration

Industrial Training is facilitated by the department of ECE with the consultation of the

Placement and Training cell, and is managed by the respective Adviser for Industrial Training.

Administrative matters are handled by the Department to maintain records of

employment, approvals given by the respective Advisers (approval of training programme,
