mobility and private consumption, as well as the rising number of consumers. This
increases the demand for efficient power semiconductors. These are used wherever
electrical power is generated, transmitted or used by the consumer. Devices,
machinery and systems are thus managed as efficiently as possible. For 2017, industry
analyst IHS Markit confirms Infineon Technologies AG as the global market leader for
power semiconductors.

In the overall market, which also includes power ICs, Infineon remained the lead and
achieved the biggest organic growth across the industry. In the submarket for discrete
and modules, Infineon has been confirmed number one for the fifteenth time in a row,
increased its market share and is now more than double the size of the company in
second place. In the market for discrete IGBTs, Infineon is now more than three times
the size of the next smaller competitor. Infineon made the next big leap in IPMs: The
company increased its market share by 1.4 percentage points – more than all the

25
competitors. In addition, at 39.2 percent, Infineon grew almost two times faster than the
market (20.1 percent).

Power semiconductors help to efficiently generate and convert power from wind
turbines and photovoltaic systems. The power is then provided to home appliances,
notebooks or data centers among others with minimum losses. That saves resources
and ensures a sustainable power supply.

 CONCLUSION, COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS

4.1 Conclusion

I have completed internship successfully at INFINEON TECHNOLOGIES KULIM

SDN.BHD. During the period, the objectives were achieved. The objectives are to
expose students with the working environment, to enhance and supplement the
knowledge and skills of students, to develop students in terms of ability, competence
and interpersonal relationship, to expose and familiarize the students to rules and
regulations including safety in industrial environment, and to develop the spirit of team
working among students and other working group members. During the 20 weeks of
industrial training, also learn from the company that ethics is more important than skills.
I am grateful to learn something very valuable from this company since there are not
many companies which uphold ethics more than skills. Even though I encountered a
few problems during this training period, I am still glad that I have managed to learn a
lot of new knowledge and gain more experience.

During the 20 weeks of industrial training, the trainee enables to implement all the
theories learned at the polytechnic to the company. Besides, the training assists the
trainee to improve their capability in handling the tasks assigned as well as the
problems that occur within the company, which can build the critical thinking of the
trainee in making a wise decision to solve problems. Other than that, trainees can also
enhance their self-confidence and improve their soft skills and leadership abilities in
the workplace.

Also, I was able to learn how to communicate well with all the staff. They gave me a lot
of knowledge. With this, I will learn how to make good communication in social life in
the future. As we know, there are many types of people in the company. With their
different attitudes, ages and positions in the company, it may be difficult to
communicate well with all these people.

4.2 Comments and Suggestions

After undergoing the industrial training for 20 weeks, I began to sense the importance
of industrial training should be given to every student. We, the students should not only
be provided with theoretical knowledge only. This is because, the companies
nowadays need a well-rounded student, and not only knows how to do one job only.

While I was having my industrial training, I was exposed to a variety of tasks. Most of
the tasks assigned to me sometimes were quite challenging and many new things that
I have never been studied before. So, it takes quite a while to understand and
complete the assigned task.

In conclusion, the exposure during industrial training is very useful for the future.
Although many new things were introduced and took quite a while to understand, we
need to know that this is one of the ways of learning. The industrial training must be
practiced at all institutions because it can provide invaluable knowledge to the
students. Among my suggestions are:

 Before undergoing industrial training, polytechnics should ensure that the

students have chosen an appropriate venue. The polytechnics should have
confirmed prior to the firm to ensure that the work offered to students is in
accordance with the course taken at the Polytechnic.

 Supervisors are responsible to monitor the activities of students so that their

work can be completed in a timely manner and in accordance with the criteria
required.

 Students should be given a course to master them in everyday conversation. The

firm or company that takes the students have to prepare a special table for them

46
 to be able to do the job better, faster and efficient. The companies should train
the students as their own employees.

 The companies must also provide the necessary equipment while they are there
to facilitate the work properly.

 Safety regulations must also be held or tightened to prevent any unwanted

accidents occur.

 Lecturers should always keep in touch with the students.
