Abstract : Industrial visits are essential for bridging the gap between theoretical classroom learning and practical application in mechanical engineering education. This study explores how such visits address curriculum gaps and improve learning outcomes by incorporating industry feedback, Program Outcome (PO) assessments, and aligning visit outcomes with Program Specific Outcomes (PSO). Feedback from industry stakeholders and students facilitated continuous improvement, providing insights into the practical application of theories. PO attainment calculations offered a quantitative evaluation of the visits' educational impact. Detailed visit reports served as assessment tools, reinforcing students' understanding of theoretical concepts through hands-on experiences. This approach enhances theoretical learning and helps achieve educational objectives, creating a more comprehensive and practical learning environment for mechanical engineering students.
