The visits gave students first-hand exposure to how engineering concepts are applied in professional settings while broadening their understanding of current practices across the manufacturing sector.<\/p>\r\n
At ATC, students gained a better appreciation of the accredited quality standards and technical processes involved in advanced manufacturing operations. At GD Precision, they were exposed to a modern manufacturing environment and learnt more about how operations are supported by advanced systems and Industry 4.0 technologies. Together, the visits offered students a broader perspective on the scale and complexity of modern manufacturing and how different processes, systems and functions come together in industry today.<\/p>\r\n
Mr Gerry Ong, CEO of GD Precision Group, shared, “Many students were surprised to see that manufacturing today is highly advanced, with Artificial Intelligence (AI), autonomous technology and smart systems shaping how we operate at GD Precision.”<\/p>\r\n
The visits also highlighted the importance of company visits in helping students better understand engineering in practice.<\/p>\r\n
Harsh Ahuja, a Year 2 Mechanical Engineering student, said, “It’s one thing to do one’s own research about the company and its operations online. But being able to actually visit and interact with the workspace gives us a wider perspective of being an engineer at the company.”<\/p>\r\n
The visits also gave students a clearer understanding of how both companies contribute to the wider manufacturing landscape.<\/p>\r\nATC <\/strong>Globe Holdings <\/strong>Pte Ltd The Department of Mechanical Engineering looks forward to creating more such opportunities with industry partners in the future.<\/p>\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On 25 March 2026, students from the Mechanical Engineering programme visited ATC and GD Precision Headquarters as part of an industry exposure initiative aimed at strengthening the connection between classroom learning and real-world engineering practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":380,"featured_media":17007,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"news_category":[39,43],"class_list":["post-16995","nus-news","type-nus-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_category-all-me","news_category-development"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/16995","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/nus-news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/380"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/16995\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17024,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/16995\/revisions\/17024"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16995"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"news_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/me\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_category?post=16995"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
