Abstract: The implementation of outcome-based education (OBE) curriculum in the university syllabus nowadays plays an important role in producing quality graduates students. Assurance to the effectiveness of OBE, a steady and continuous assessment must be carried out through each course as well as the industrial training program. This paper discussed the perceptions of the undergraduate students from Civil and Structural Engineering Department who have undergone their industrial training program. Questionnaires were prepared and summarized into three main aspects i.e. 'personal attitude', 'communication' and 'work attitude' of the students before and after the training program. The results show that the overall student's performance before the training averaging from 48% to 63% for these three main aspects. Interestingly the percentage has tremendously increased to 89% - 95% after completion of the training program. This proved that the OBE implementation in university sylla!
bus is beneficial for improvement to the engineering education and engineering profession in general.
