THE INDUSTRIAL VISIT PERSPECTIVE

1. The concept of Industrial visits has been woven into the academic practices of the institute keeping in mind that experiential learning is the ethos of CGC. The motive is to provide the students with a right blend of theoretical learning and an opportunity to witness how those concepts are utilized in the practical environment.
2. The visits provide an excellent opportunity for the students to comprehend the complexities faced by the organizations in various stages and the implications that decisions have. Students also get to know about the intra and inter-department linkages within the organization and understand behavioral aspects within an organization.
3. The larger aim of the visits is to make the students relate to the value-chain as followed by firms in the Industry. Value chain refers to processes and activities right from the sourcing of raw materials to the point where the final product reaches the end user .
4.Exposing the future workforce to the actual field work, industrial environment, state-of the- art science and technology adapted in machineries and equipment operations and industrial practices provide ways to relate classroom theories with actual industrial experiences at the cognitive level of the students. The visits to the industry broadens the mental orientation of the students and also give the true picture of the on- going work.
5. One of the strengths and attractions of academic and vocational institutions to prospective students is their ability to link with important industries, derive mutual support and later access employment opportunities for College pass outs. Familiarity to industrial process, close coordination and linkages form solid grounds for the industry to rely heavily on educational institutes with which they have ongoing linkages with to supply the manpower needed under any given circumstances. Employment prospects amongst students, in turn, are heightened by deeper familiarity with existing industrial systems.
