Grochem (M) Sdn. Bhd. / Muhammad Nurhakim Rozmi

The knowledge and skills I received was undeniably important to my continuing chemical engineering career. The exposure I receive with regards to the nature of an industrial work flow, as well as the documents and legal necessity to the formation of a functioning and safe chemical company is thoroughly absorbed, forming a better chemical engineer candidate. This experience solidified that the 5 semesters spent learning about thermodynamics, safety and chemistry were not in vain, in fact they were essential and useful throughout my industrial learning experience. Especially the knowledge taught regarding safety and health, which were vital for a cosmetic company. A lot of the vocabularies used in the work environment were easier to understand as I was primed with the proper workplace safety education. Not only that, I experienced new acquaintanceship and even friendships that may last beyond my short 14 weeks. The early awkwardness seemed like only a bygone era, when strong friendships were born with fellow staff members. The experience taught me a lot about the nature of the workplace environment and the necessity of extroverted attitudes and thought processes, to be well-liked alongside being respected. This industrial learning experience will be an experience that will stick with me throughout my journey into becoming a full-fledged chemical engineer in the knowledge and skill aspects, as well as the interpersonal aspects.
