The industrial training report is intended to help students write in-depth reflections on their internship experiences, which include information about the company and industry. At Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), the Faculty of Business Administration has set the Industrial Training (MGT666) as its final semester course, where students are exposed to real-work experience and environment for a period of six months which is equivalent to 24 weeks. This executive summary highlights key experiences, contributions, and learnings gained throughout my internship timeline. During my six-month internship at PETRONAS Refinery & Petrochemical Corporation Sdn. Bhd. (PRPC), I had the privilege of working in the Strategic Planning team, a crucial division responsible for shaping the organization's long-term objectives, optimizing sustainability efforts as a license to operate, and navigating the dynamic energy landscape. My role as an intern primarily involved assisting the team with their tasks and continuous learning on strategic sustainability initiatives. Throughout the internship, I actively contributed to the progress of strategic initiatives in the Sustainability Mass Communication Roll Out plan, supporting PRPC's commitment to environmental stewardship and diversification. On the other hand, this report emphasizes how the oil and gas industry is one of the leading players in the energy power sector. Besides, by further evaluating SWOT for PETRONAS Refinery & Petrochemical Corporation Sdn. Bhd. I can determine its strengths & weaknesses as the internal variables, along with opportunities & threats as the external variables. Apart from the discussion on SWOT, recent academic citations from no later than the last five years are also included to support recommendations based on my internship observations. Overall, this internship has been a transformative learning experience, and I am confident that the skills and knowledge gained will contribute to my future endeavours in career. The experience that provided a hands-on opportunity to contribute to the organization's strategic direction, exposure to the energy industry's challenges and opportunities, coupled with the nurturing environment and supportive teams, has strengthened my passion for strategic management. I am immensely grateful for the learning opportunities and the chance to be part of PR PC's vision for a sustainable future.
