Foreword
Internship is engages students in service activities primarily for providing them with first-hand experience that enhances their learning and understanding the issues relevant to a particular area of study. It assists the attache’s on how to bridge the gap between their academic learning process and the practical reality. The industrial attachment programme contributes significantly and positively towards enhancing the knowledge base and motivational level of students. The rationale in offering the industrial attachment as part of the academic programme is that students benefit from these industrial attachment experiences and exposure. Benefits include improvements in career-related direction, improved marketability of graduates, job expectations, interpersonal skills, leadership and understanding of the business applications of classroom learning, team spirit and adopting to business environments.

The industrial attachment experience is argued to be beneficial
