BACKGROUND
The Industrial Engineering is a part of engineering science which can be
defined as the profession in which a knowledge of the mathematical and natural
sciences gained by study, experience, and practice is applied with judgment to
develop ways to utilize, economically, the materials and forces of nature for the
benefit of mankind. Unlike other engineering disciplines which more likely
product oriented, Industrial Engineering has deeper orientation in constructing the
process. It usually called process oriented. Moreover, it would be related with the
process created in order to repair the whole performance of a system which can be
considered by some sides, such as economy, quality assessment, impact toward
environment, and how all of those things giving benefit to human life.
The description about engineering has already been acquired by students
through courses and information during college. To raise the skillful of students,
this implicit knowledge should be transformed into experiences or practical
substance. Then it will be externalized become the explicit knowledge to get
enrolled the whole process of knowledge management.
Industrial Engineering Department, Faculty of Industrial Technology
Islamic University of Indonesia, realizes about the importance of integrating both
theoretical and practical substances. Hence, an internship is held as a program
which combines academic skills with career-related work experience to form a
link-and-match education program between formal education and real-world
problem.

Program.

Data collecting and information related to the problem

In this step, student will try to collect data and information in the work
system, also looking for the main cause of problem.

The development and planning alternatives solution

The data and information obtained during research is used to solve the
emerged problem or analysis.

Evaluation
This step is about doing feasibility study through offering solution and
then if it is possible, it will be presented to the company.

CLOSING
In educational field, the balance between theoretical sciences and direct
implementation in a real work is absolutely needed. If deeper theoretical science is
not followed by implementation in the real work, it would be useless. Therefore,
as students of Industrial Engineering Department Universitas Islam Indonesia, we
expect a warm cooperation and guidance from PDAM, Tbkin completing the
Internship Program. The best effort will be driven with all our capability to do this
Internship Program. Thank you for your kind attention.
Balikpapan, 9th December 2012
