ensured balanced representation of performance levels across both groups.InterventionThe intervention consisted of one-week pre-internship training program targeting three coreprofessional skills: communication, report writing, and problem-solving. The trainingincorporated theoretical sessions and practical activities facilitated by the research teamcomprised of three faculty, one laboratory technician and one industry professional. The pre-training lasted one-week, 8-hours per day. Part of the activities in the one-week training involvedenhancing communication, report writing, and problem-solving skills. Students practiced writingapplication letters and resumes, developed presentation techniques, and worked on illustratingreports with data. They
the first and second years of undergraduate study. Introducing simulation early in the curriculum provides the benefit of enhancing students' understanding of fundamental physical concepts. Visualizing phenomena such as fluid flow, stress distribution in a beam, or the electric field distribution in a circuit reinforces theoretical instruction and broadens the scope of experiments that can be explored in the laboratory. Furthermore, incorporating simulation into the curriculum early on allows students to develop these skills over the entire duration of their academic careers, rather than only in their final year, as is often the case.• Project management: Each successful proposal is considered a ‘project.’ A

concentrated on either academic or industrial side of UIC. In this section, we brieflyelucidate the motivations and the interaction channels of UIC.Motivations of UICThe motivations for universities to involve in UIC are usually different from those for industry.From the academia side, universities are mostly motivated to collaborate with industry tosecure funds for research (Lee,2000), access resources such as equipment, laboratories andemerging techniques (Welsh et al.,2008; Santoro, 2000), advance and complement researchagendas (Perkmann, Markus, & Kathryn,2009), expose both student and faculty with practicalsituations and problems (Ankrah et al.,2013), improve research and teaching via practicalapplication (Arza,2010), as well as enhance
