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.

ii. Problems
iii. Views and recommendations
i) References Provided that there are important resources that are used as references
while preparing the report, a complete list of the titles of references concern must be included.

j) Appendix
Appendixes are additional information considered appropriate to support the
main text. Suggested appendixes are:
i. Investigation/project report during the industrial training
ii. Technical drawings etc.
Others
a) Figures/Tables
All figures, tables and similar contents must be captioned and labeled. Every
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,
approval of final training report), letters of confirmation, and registration of all reports
submitted.
All approvals and variations are dealt with by the respective Advisers. Assessments and
other academic matters are dealt with by an Industrial Training Panel.
