1.0 A Brief Overview of Industrial Training

1.1 Background

Industrial Training refers to students’ work experience in an engineering-practising environment
prior to graduation. The Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) and Engineers Australia, which are the
organizations that accredited all engineering programmes in Malaysia and Australia, strongly
advocate that industrial training to be included in all undergraduate engineering programmes.

In Curtin University Malaysia, all engineering students MUST complete at least 12 consecutive
weeks of industrial training with 480 total working hours as one of the requirements to be
awarded a Bachelor of Engineering. It is a mechanism to integrate engineering practices in the
curriculum to achieve the overall Programme Outcomes and Curtin Graduates Attributes. All the
Bachelor of Engineering students shall undergo the Industrial Training during the semester break
after he/ she has completed Year 3 or obtained at least 500 credit points. For Bachelor of
Technology (Computer Systems and Networking) – BTech, Bachelor of Computing (Cyber Security),
and Bachelor of Computing (Software Engineering), students shall undergo the Industrial Training
during the semester break after he/she has completed Year 2 or obtained at least 300 credit
points. For Bachelor of Applied Science (Construction Management) – BAppSc, students shall
undergo the Industrial Training during the semester break after he/she has completed Year 2 and
Year 3.

Students should note that Industrial Training is an essential component in the engineering
curriculum. It provides exposure to engineering processes at a practical level; helps developing
professional skills required by an engineer and offers opportunity to prospective employment.
Many employers regard this period as a chance to assess potential employees for future
employment.

All engineering students should make considerable effort and give sufficient thought into obtaining
the most effective training for themselves. Whilst challenging, it is desirable to obtain training that
covers a range of activities, such as design, laboratory and on-site field works. Tables in Appendix
D suggest the relevant training areas for each engineering disciplines under the Faculty of
Engineering and Science.

At Curtin University Malaysia, Industrial Training is facilitated by the Dean of Faculty, and managed
by the Faculty Industrial and External Relations Committee.

2.0 Obtaining Industrial Placement

Students who expect to undergo Industrial Training at the end of the year need to apply and obtain
an industrial placement on their own initiative. It is part of the learning process that students
experience the process of job application and placement with industry.

Students may refer to the university’s industrial partners list to identify potential companies which
could offer a placement, or look for any other relevant companies that they are interested to work
with. An undertaking letter from the Faculty could be obtained from the Industrial Training
Administrative Assistant to support the application for industrial placement. Once a placement
offer is obtained, students MUST register online via Moodle by 31st October of the year and get
approval from respective department’s Industrial Training Advisor on the placement, before
attending the training. Industrial Training Advisors are academic staff appointed by respective
department in the Industrial and External Relations Committee. Information about the list of
industries and Advisors can be found on the Industrial and External Relations website at
https://engsci.curtin.edu.my/industrial-and-external-relations/

Industrial Training Manual v9, Faculty of Engineering and Science, Curtin University Malaysia

2.1 Student’s Responsibility

a) Students MUST attend the industrial training briefing provided by Faculty Advisor.
b) Students MUST attend any additional training or briefing in preparation for the Industrial

Training, provided by the Faculty.
c) The industrial training must be conducted before the final semester.
d) It is strictly required for BEng and BTech student to obtain industrial placement for a

minimal period of 12 working weeks (consecutively) and 480 working hours. BAppSc
student is required to have a minimum training period of 24 working weeks and 960 hours
(12 weeks and 480 working hours in Year 2; 12 weeks and 480 working hours in Year 3).

In a situation without any public holidays and leaves taken by the student during the

internship period, the requirement above should normally be fulfilled according to the

following calculation:

Working hours: 8am to 5pm = 9hrs – 1hr lunch = 8hrs

Working days: Monday to Friday

Total working hours: 12 weeks x 5 days x 8 hours = 480 hours

However, if there are any public holidays and leaves taken by the student during the
internship period, they should not be counted as working hours.

Therefore, in this case, the student must compensate any shortage of working hours in
order to fulfil the minimal requirement of 480 working hours, thus the total training week
could be more than 12 weeks. For example, suppose there are in total five (5) days off
(equivalent to one (1) working week), including public holidays and leaves taken during the
internship period; and the student chooses to compensate the five days off after the 12th
week. Then, the calculation will be as follows:

Working hours : 8am to 5pm = 9hrs – 1hr lunch = 8hrs
Monday to Friday
Working days : 13 weeks x 5 days = 65 days
5 days
Total No. of days : 60 days (65 – 5 = 60 days)
60 days x 8 hours = 480 hours
Total No. of days off :

Total No. of actual working days :

Total working hours :

“Please check with the Human Resource of the respective company about the working hours.

It should be clearly stated in the offer letter.”

For example: -

Internship Period: 1 Dec 2020 (Tuesday) – 19 Feb 2021 (Friday)

Working hours: 8am to 5pm = 9hrs – 1hr lunch = 8hrs

Working days: Monday to Friday

Total weeks: 11 weeks and three days < 12 weeks

Total hours: 58 days x 8 hours = 464 hours

Public holiday: 25 Dec 2020; 1 Jan 2021; 12 Feb 2021 or 24 hours

Total working hours: 464 – 24 = 440 hours < 480 hours;

In order to satisfy a minimum period of 12 weeks, the internship period need to extend to
22 Feb 2021 (Monday). But the working hours is 440 hours < 480 hours, not satisfying both
criteria. Therefore, he/she needs to further extend the internship period to 26 Feb 2021.

e) Having obtained the placement, students MUST register the internship and get approval
from the advisor to be officially recorded in the Industrial Training Database before
undergoing the industrial training through online registration on Moodle.
