<br/><br/> Industrial visits are essential for bridging the gap between theoretical classroom learning and practicalapplicationinmechanicalengineering education.Thisstudyexploreshowsuchvisits addresscurriculumgapsandimprovelearning outcomesbyincorporatingindustryfeedback, Program Outcome (PO) assessments, and aligning visitoutcomeswithProgramSpecificOutcomes (PSO).Feedbackfromindustrystakeholdersand studentsfacilitatedcontinuousimprovement, providing insights into the practical application of theories.POattainmentcalculationsoffereda quantitativeevaluationofthevisits'educational impact. Detailed visit reports served as assessment tools,reinforcingstudents'understandingof theoretical concepts through hands-on experiences. This approach enhances theoretical learning and helps achieveeducationalobjectives,creatingamore comprehensive and practical learning environment for mechanical engineering students.
