Abstract
Graduates face a myriad of options upon completing their degree, including starting their own venture. Integrating industry and exposing enterprises to students as part of their curriculum not only provides opportunities for students, but enterprises as well. For students, they can apply their knowledge to real-world briefs in an attempt to win the business of a much larger corporation. For enterprises, they can identify strong potential future employees or investment opportunities. However, while opportunities exist for both students and existing enterprises, real challenges remain for the facilitating higher education institution. The talk will cover experiences of integrating industry into postgraduate courses and the lessons learned from facilitating the interaction between students and industry.
