| dc.description.abstract | An Industrial Attachment is a structured, college-graded work experience in a professional work setting during which the student applies and acquires knowledge and skills. It involves the application of learnt skills in an organization related to the student's major. This study evaluated the effectiveness of industrial attachment training for students of the Bachelor of Purchasing and Supplies Management (BPSM) program of Murang'a University of Technology (MUT). Specific objectives for the study were, (1) To examine the adequacy of preparation for industrial attachment training for students of the BPSM program of Murang'a University of Technology, (2) To evaluate practical supply chain management experience gained in industrial attachment training for students of BPSM program of Murang'a University of Technology, (3) To identify the challenges experienced in industrial attachment training by students of BPSM program of Murang'a University of Technology, (4) To evaluate the effectiveness of industrial attachment training for students of BPSM program of Murang'a University of technology, (5) And finally, To determine strategies for effective management of the industrial attachment training for students of BPSM program of Murang'a University of Technology. The study population targeted all 112 fourth-year students of the Bachelor of Purchasing and Supplies management program of Murang'a University of technology for the academic year 2020/2021. A survey of all students was carried out by use of the questionnaire. Data collected were analyzed by use of SPSS and presented in tables. Key findings indicate that, the Public sector is the biggest supporter of industrial training, students were adequately prepared, Students were more exposed to store activities than as compared to other supply chain activities and the industrial training was effective in that the training provided an opportunity for students to link theoretical knowledge and practical experience. The study recommends that there should be adequate collaboration between the industry and the University to provide adequate industrial attachment to students. | en_US |
