Getting students Industry ready is a topic that has been discussed many times over the years and as the industry academia gap is getting wider, it is high time that educators come up with a solid plan to tackle this situation. This gap is further exemplified in the engineering realm where a study conducted a couple of years ago shows that less than 10 percent of engineering graduates have adequate skills for them to be employed. This is in stark contrast with some of the other developed countries. The lack of practical-oriented education and the inability of the education system to develop the critical thinking capabilities among the students can be pointed as some of the reasons behind this.
