The Use of Industrial Visits to Enhance Learning at Engineering Courses

Abstract

 

Industrial visits represent important activities in any engineering undergraduate programme that contribute to the achievement of various essential learning outcomes and programme objectives. This paper reports on an attempt to make the industrial visit an integral part of the course. This is achieved through identifying learning outcomes and a suitable industrial site to achieve them. In this case a thermal power plant was identified as a site to be visited by chemical, electrical & electronic and mechanical engineering first year students.
