1. INTRODUCTION

Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) was established with the objective to produce well- rounded graduates who are not only technically competent but also possess other traits such as lifetime learning capacity, critical thinking, communication and behavioral skills, business acumen, practical aptitude and solution synthesis ability.

In line with the vision to close the industry gap, UTP has made it compulsory for its undergraduate students to undergo practical works in the form of an eight-month industrial attachment prior to their completion of studies at UTP. The industrial internship carries fourteen (14) credit hours and lasts for thirty-two (32) weeks. The Industrial Internship Programme is coordinated by the Student Industrial Internship Unit (SIIU) who is responsible in ensur ing the success of the Industrial Internship Programme. With an average of 500 interns per semester, SIIU has successfully secured the placements for all students with various host companies such as PETRONAS subsidiaries, government-linked companies (GLC), multi-national companies (MNC), as well as major overseas corporation i.e. in US, Germany, France, Austria, Singapore, UAE, Italy and UK.

UTP has always placed great emphasis in having a close collaboration with the industries in which its graduates will eventually gain recognition from industry players locally and abroad. This internship programme is a prime example of the University-Industry collaboration.

Currently, UTP offers five engineering programmes namely Chemical, Civil, Electrical & Electronics, Mechanical and Petroleum Engineering, and three technological programmes namely Information & Communication Technology, Business Information Systems and Petroleum Goescience at Bachelor degree level.

2. PURPOSE OF INDUSTRIAL INTERNSHIP

The purpose of the industrial internship is to expose UTP students to the real working environment so that they can relate theoretical knowledge with application in industry. From the Industrial Internship Programme, the students will also develop skills in safety practices, work ethics, communication, management, etc. Furthermore, this Industrial Internship Programme will establish close relationship between industries and UTP.

The industrial internship programme will provide opportunity to UTP’s students to build a solid understanding of the fundamentals of business and organization performance such as economic models of business, competitive positioning and strategy execution. With this real life environment, students develop their ability to assess performance, interpret trends, explore the consequences of change and make better decisions.
