Practice School
The concept of Practice School is one of the unique features of the curriculum at 沙巴体育 Institute of Technology, 沙巴体育. It allows the students to spend quality time in the industry during their last semester of the B. Tech program. Students spend 4 - 6 months in their eighth semester in an industry to gain valuable ground exposure by being part of teams handling live and challenging projects. It enables them to work in the area of mutual interest, improve self-confidence and develop core competence.
