Objective : The objective of PRA3 is that the student through relevant work gains insight into the organization and work of a company from an engineering point of view.
In the company the student must work and get acquainted with the subjects he or she has been taught during the former studies in practice.
The Engineering Practice should motivate and further encourage the student to get the most out of the elective subjects during the rest of the studies.

It is a part of the objective that the student should find an Engineering company himself/herself.

The practice must combined with the other elements of the study contribute to that the student develops professional qualifications in engineering as described in the executive order concerning engineering education.
Principal Content : The B. Eng. education is broad and the Engineering Trainee will be a relevant “employee” in many different types of companies. Therefore it is not possible to be very specific about the content of the Engineering Practice. However it is a prerequisite that the Engineering Trainee takes part in one or more of the following areas:
• Planning
• Realization of solutions to technical problems or projects.
• Participation in management and cooperation.

The student is in the company and is guided by an experienced engineer.
