This includes its organizational structure, top management team, corporate profile and etc. It is also very desirable to include an organizational chart of the management/departmental hierarchy. The scope of work of the department where the student is attached, tasks, projects and main activities should also be included into this section. (Students are advised to discuss with their Host Company’s management/supervisors before writing and reporting on confidential matters so that it may not go against the policy of the organization) 6.4.2.2 Industrial Training Project and Main Activities A detailed description of the methodology and materials used (inclusive design and testing phases). Students are also to include any interesting and important steps taken in solving/troubleshooting problems encountered during the course of the training. Then, the explanation of obtained results from daily/periodic duty and tasks must be presentable in the report. Students must give specific explanation about the topics, and be creative in presenting their results. Every detail of duties and task must be supported by tabulated data, graphs, diagrams, charts or pictures and so on. These contents must also be factual and accurate, based on references from magazines, books, journals, manuals, work instructions etc. Students are also required to relate their practical experience to their theoretical knowledge learnt in the course of their study. 27 Industrial Training (InTra) Guidelines 6.4.2.3 Discussion and Recommendation Students should emphasize evaluation on the subject/material/process/problem faced. Discuss the significance of the challenges and limitations of your findings/solutions. Discussions must emphasize on the outcome of the research in relation to the results obtained from the project work and theories reported. 6.4.2.4 Conclusion This is usually treated as the last major division of the text.

A Log Book is usually used to record ideas, engineering processes, experimental tests, results and observations. If properly organized and maintained, it can help to recall important information that might be useful in report writing. It is a good practice for the students to update their Log book on a daily basis and to get their Host Company’s supervisors verification on a fortnightly basis. 7.2 Items to be reported in the Log Book Entries that are written in the Log Book are usually short and precise. Information that is usually entered into a Log Book is as follows: 7.2.1 Works carried out by the student Work and duties that are carried out personally should be detailed out from the start to the end. All explanations and reporting are best supplemented by sketches of diagrams, pictures or calculations. 7.2.2 Works that are observed The organization usually does not allow students to carry out dangerous and highly 29 Industrial Training (InTra) Guidelines for Diploma specialized job. In these situations, students are allowed to observe and note down in details every step that is taken in carrying out the job by the co-worker or authorized personnel. Learning through observation is also an essential part of the training. 7.2.3 Work/Duties that are heard In established organizations, some of the settings of important equipments that are the backbone of the company’s operation are too critical to be risked for demonstration purposes. Thus, it is also important for the student to learn and report about duties and operations of certain equipments/systems through listening. 7.3 Example of Log Book Writing a) Record down the instructions given by the Host Company’s Supervisor b) List down all equipments/documents that are required to carry out the task c) List down each detailed step one-by-one from the start until the end d) Sketch all equipments and components that are involved, and calculations done e) Details of the task conducted and results gathered f) References g) Make a conclusion, summary, comments and perhaps suggestions on how the task may be improved. 30 APPENDIX A (i) : Flowchart for InTra Application Procedure START Responsibilities Time Line Semester 1 Week 1 to Week 2 Semester 1 Week 3 to Week 6 Announcement and InTra Briefing for students Application received - Students’ Resumes - App A(ii) - InTra01 Form - App A(iii) Key into InTra Database Rejected 1. 2. 3.

(ACKNOWLEDGEMENT – LIST OF FIGURES, All CHAPTER, REFERENCES, and APPENDICES - Times New Roman, font 12, capital letter, bold) (Sub-heading, sub-sub-heading – Times New Roman, font 12, small letter) (List of APPENDICES: Appendix A, Appendix B, Appendix A(i), etc – Times New Roman, font 12, small letter, bold). 67 APPENDIX E (vii) : Reference System – Number System References System (Number System) Under the Number System, the references are listed in the order that they have been cited. With this system, a reference to published work is via the use of numbers, e.g. “There are many undergraduate texts on Process Control [1-4]. The most popular seems to be the book by Zhang [2]. However, the only one to deal with process design and process control in an integrated manner is that by McAndrew [4].” When there are more than two authors, e.g Kapoor et. al [2]. There are a number of types of publications, and they can be broadly classified as follows: • • • • • • • journals articles conference proceedings books dissertations; theses and research reports company reports and manuals information from the world-wide-web (www) personal communications Each category requires a different presentation. (i) Journal Articles These are the most common sources of cited material, and include specialist technical journals as well as trade journals. Use the following format to present articles from technical journals: Author(s), (year). Article title, Name of journal, Volume Number, page range. For example: 1. Liu, X., Davis, R.W., Hughes, L.C., Rasmussen, M.H., Bhat, R., Zah, C.E., and Stradling, J. (2006). A study on the reliability of indium solder die bonding of high power semiconductor lasers, J. Appl. Phys., 100, pp. 013104-013115. 2. Finkelstein M. (2006). Microfluids: Cliks and Chips, Nature, 442, pp. 254-256. (ii) Conference Proceedings Papers presented at conferences are also common sources of research information. Use the format below when listing them: Author(s), (year). Article title, Name of conference, Location of conference, page range. 68 APPENDIX E (vii) : Reference System – Number System For example: 1. Dore S.D., Perkins, J.D. and Kershenbaum, L.S. (1994). Application of geometric nonlinear control in the process industries - a case study, Proc. IFAC Symposium, ADCHEM '94, Kyoto, Japan, pp 501-506. (iii) Books To list books, use the following format: Author(s), (year). Title of book in italics. Edition number, Name of publisher, place of publication. For example: 1. Sze, S.M. (2002). Semiconductor Devices: Physics and Technology. 2nd Edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. USA. 2. Born, M., and Wolf, E. (2003). Principles of Optics: Electromagnetic theory of propagation, interference and diffraction of light. 7th Edition, Cambridge University Press, UK. The format for author(s) is identical to the above, but the first letters of key words in the main title are in capitals, and the title is in italics. There is not need to indicate the edition of the book if it is the first edition. Some books are compilations of articles from different authors. For such cases, the format used is a cross between that for journal articles and books, Author(s), (year). Title of article in book, In: Name of book, Edition number, Chapter number, Name(s) of editors, Name of publisher, place of publication. For example: [1] Rumelhart D.E., Hinton G.E. and Williams, R.J. (1987). Learning internal representations by error propagation, In: Parallel Distributed Processing: Vol. 1, Ch. 8, D.E. Rumelhart and J.L. McClelland [editors], MIT Press, Cambridge MA. Note the use of the word "In:" and the difference in which the names of the authors and the names of the editors are presented: editors' names are listed with their initials first. However, when the book listed without reference to authors of particular chapters, editors are considered the authors, in which case the item will be listed as: 69 APPENDIX E (vii) : Reference System – Number System [2] Rumelhart, D.E. and McClelland, J.L. [editors], (1987). Parallel Distributed Processing: Vol. 1, MIT Press, Cambridge MA. (iv) Dissertations; Theses and Research Reports Dissertations, theses and academic research reports are listed using the format below: Author(s), (year). Title in italics. Type of publication, Research Group, Name of institution, Country. For example: [1] Peel, C. (1995). Aspects of Neural Networks for Modelling and Control. PhD Thesis, University of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, UK. [2] Bloggs, J. and Other, A.N. (1998). The Effects of Vodbull on Class Attendance. Research Report No. 123, Social Impact Research Group, Smirnoff Institute of Technology, Vladistock, Russia. (v) Company Reports and Manuals Sometimes, students may need to cite material contained in publications by companies and from manuals. In such cases there are no named individuals for authors. Use the format below: Name of company or organisation, (year). Title in italics. Place of publication. For example: [1] Mathsoft Inc., (1999). Mathcad 2000 Reference Manual. Cambridge, MA. (vi) Information from the www (internet) Nowadays, much information can be obtained from the internet, typically websites but sources include newsgroups and on-line forums. The format to use for such publications is: Name of Author(s) or company or organisation, (year), Title of article, URL, date found. The URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the full internet address of the article. Due to the transient nature of on-line information, it is important to include the date when the information is retrieved. For example: [1] Tham, M.T., (1997). Distillation: an introduction, http://lorien.ncl.ac.uk/ming/distil/distil0.htm, 30 May 2001. 70 APPENDIX E (vii) : Reference System – Number System [Please minimize the references from internet in FYP report]. (vii) Personal Communications Sometimes, students may have used information passed on by a colleague or another person, via a phone conversation; letter; email or other forms of communication. Students may, and should, include these in the reference list. The format to use is: Name, (year). Personal communication, Affiliation of named person. For example: [1] Blogg, J. (1996). Personal communication, University College London, UK. 71 APPENDIX F (i) : InTra Log Book Format (Front) Week: ________________________ Date:_____________________ Time: _________ Activity Title: ___________________________________________________________ Supervisor: __________________________ Department: _______________________ ACTIVITY REPORT 72 APPENDIX F (ii) : InTra Log Book Format (Back) REPORT 73
