With an emphasis on learning the basic features of industries and companies, six teams of students (each having six students) were formed. Each team was then assigned to prepare and present a pre-visit project report on one sector/company each. This exercise gave a very solid and basic understanding of all industries and companies to all students.
With this level of understanding and information, the plant and visit followed by interaction with management was very productive and gave a tremendous exposure to students on intricacies of real life situations.
With lot of fun during road travel and enjoying highway food, the students also had the opportunity to enjoy the kite festival in Ahmedabad, They also visited Gondal palace which houses more than 100 Super premium cars from last century.
