Students are attached to private and public organisations for a period of three months during the third year session long break with a view to making them acquire additional practical experience in all areas of Software Engineering over and above what is gained in SEN 299. Students are supervised during the training period and shall be expected to keep records designed for the purpose of monitoring their performance. They are also expected to submit a report on the experience gained and defend their reports.
