Students Industrial Work Experience II

At the end of the SIWES, students should be able to: 1. demonstrate proficiency in at least any three softwares in their chosen career choices; 2. demonstrate proficiency in some animation videos (some of which are free on YouTube) in their chosen careers; 3. carry out outdoor hands-on construction activities to sharpen their skills in their chosen careers;, 4. demonstrate proficiency in generating data from laboratory analysis and develop empirical models; 5. demonstrate proficiency in how to write engineering reports from lab work; 6. fill logbooks of all experience gained in their chosen careers; and 7. write a general report at the end of the training. The experience is to be graded and the students must pass all the modules of the attachment and shall form part of CGPA.

On-the-job experience in industry chosen for practical working experience but not necessarily limited to the student’s major (Students are to proceed on three months of work experience i.e. 12 weeks during the long vacation following 300 level). Students are engaged in the more advanced workshops, indoor software design training similar to what they will use in the industry and outdoor construction activities to sharpen their skills. The use of relevant animation videos that mimic industrial scenarios is encouraged. Students are to write a report at the end of the training. As much as possible, students should be assisted and encouraged to secure 3 months placement in the industry. Examples of outline of activities and experiences to which students are expected to be exposed to earn prescribed credits include: Section A: Welding and fabrication processes, automobile repairs, · lathe machine operations: machining and turning of simple machine elements, such as screw threads, bolts, gears, etc. Simple milling machine operations, machine tool maintenance and trouble- shooting, andwooden furniture making processes. Section B: Mechanical design with computer graphics and CAD modelling and drafting. Introduction to Solidworks: software capabilities, design methodologies and applications. Basics part modelling: sketching with SolidWorks, building 3D components, using extruded Bose base · Basic assembly modelling, and solidWorks drawing drafting. Top-down assembly technique exploded view, exploded line sketch. Introduction to PDMS 3D design software; autoCAD mechanical, SPSS. A comprehensive case study design project. The student should be introduced to the concept of product/component design and innovation and then be given a comprehensive design project. Examples of projects should include the following: a. design of machine components; b. product design and innovation; c. part modelling and drafting in solidworks; and d. technical report writing. FST 300: Laboratory Practical (Instrumentation and chemical analyses of foods (Grains, Oil Seed, Roots and Tubers Practical) (2 Units C: PH 90) Learning Outcomes At the end of this course, the students should be able to: 1. process grains, oil seeds, roots and tubers to obtain assorted food products; 2. utilise appropriate technological steps to minimise post-harvest losses; 3. develop novel food products; and 4. determine chemical composition of different food products using analytical instruments. Course Contents Practical and pilot scale processing of cereals, legumes and oil seeds as well as roots and tubers into flour, starch, chips, syrups, garri, noodles, etc. Demonstration of different types of yams, cassava, cocoyams and sweet potatoes, etc. Determination of the chemical composition of cereals, legumes and oil seeds. Processing of grains into flour, paste, protein concentrate, starch and popped products. Baking of bread, cake and biscuits, etc. Fried products. Oil extraction and refining. Extrusion cooking.
