Experiential Learning of Students of UIFT through industrial Visit to Apparel Industry
In order to get an insight into the real working environment and the processes followed in apparel industry, an industrial visit to Ludhiana was organized by UIFT for its Master’s students. The students visited two apparel units namely Vardhman Apparels and Neva Garments Ltd, Ludhiana. The complete process of manufacturing of Shirts, innerwear, lingerie, athleisure garments from fabric inspection to cutting, production, finishing and packaging were closely observed by the students. Interactions with the designers, merchandisers, quality control head at the industry helped them to clear many queries. There were discussions on how designing and marketing are conducted for the domestic market. The specialized machines with various attachments to accomplish high quality garments was another important part of the visit. This visit helped the students to correlate the theoretical concepts of textile texting, quality management, production etc. with the practical and experiential exposure through this industrial visit.
