Despark International College (DSIC) organised an industrial visit to PROTON’s manufacturing facility in Tanjung Malim on 7 July 2026 for 19 students. The participants were from the college’s Sijil Kemahiran Malaysia (SKM), Diploma and Bachelor’s Degree programmes.
The visit offered students an opportunity to explore an automotive manufacturing environment and see how technical knowledge is applied in vehicle production.
Guided by PROTON staff, students toured production areas and observed engine and vehicle assembly processes. Staff explained the work carried out at different stages, helping students understand how these operations contribute to the production of a complete vehicle.
Students also visited an area where fully assembled vehicles underwent testing. This introduced them to the checks carried out after assembly and the role of quality control in automotive manufacturing. The visit concluded with a briefing and an exchange session with PROTON representatives.
Through exposure to assembly processes and the testing of completed vehicles, the visit provided students with an opportunity to relate their classroom and workshop learning to industry practices. It also offered a broader view of automotive manufacturing beyond their usual learning environment.
DSIC extends its appreciation to PROTON for accommodating the visit and to its staff for their guidance and explanations throughout the programme.
