This is a report on Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES I) activities conducted at TECHNOLOGY INCUBATION CENTER, KANO (TIC, KANO). The exercise involved training sessions that lasted for three months at three different establishment units. About four weeks each was spent at Technology Incubation Center, where the experience was garnered in various areas. Hence, this report contains a comprehensive summary of all activities, the processes learned, and the equipment and facilities used while highlighting the significance of the experience and its relevance to my field (Chemical Engineering). The experience accumulated during the three-month period covered areas such as insight into Biodiesel Production, processes involved in Oil Extraction, Soapmaking, Insecticide Production and Formulation of various beauty and skin care products. For the compilation of this report, research was done on the history and rationale behind the Students’ Industrial Work Experience Scheme, and from the findings, it was concluded that the training scheme is indeed relevant to students of Science, Engineering and Technology.
Acquired Skills and Experience: Biodiesel Production, processes involved in Oil Extraction, Soapmaking, Insecticide Production and Formulation of various beauty and skincare products
