NUST-PNEC STUDENTS OF NA VISITED KS&EW

NUST-PNEC students of semester III-NA , accompanied by faculty Mr. Muhammad Omer and Mr. Sameer, had an enriching visit to Karachi Shipyard & Engineering Works (KS&EW) on 31-october-2023. Welcomed warmly by the management, the students were first presented with an insightful overview of the shipyard’s history and operations. They were then guided through diverse workshops by experienced KS&EW HR personnel, gaining valuable insights into the practical aspects of ship construction. Witnessing key fabrication processes such as plate bending, plasma cutting, and welding, the visit significantly enhanced their understanding of the responsibilities and scope of Naval Architects. Furthermore, the students had the opportunity to observe maritime platforms undergoing fitting and repair in drydock and on the Ship Lift Transfer System (SLTS), translating theoretical knowledge into tangible experience. This educational visit was pivotal in shaping the students’ perception of their chosen profession, providing invaluable real-world context and practical application.
