Abstract

This research examines the effect of commissioned projects on skill development, empowerment of students, and professional development, with emphasis on the influence of previous industry exposure. Findings indicate a moderate positive influence of commissioned projects on skill development, yet previous industry exposure was a more significant predictor of skill competency, empowerment, and career preparedness. Institutional backing, mentorship, and industry partnership were determined to be most influential in ensuring project success and enhancing student outcomes.
