This report is written out. of activities carried out during the internship at BUAC farm. It's by policy at Busitema university faculty of agriculture and animal sciences at the end of first academic year send out students to different organizations of choice by students to practice the activities learnt at Campus. The main objective is to expose students to real experience in the world of work. This report is comprising of the information about Busitema university Arapai campus farm where I carried out my internship. In the time of industrial training we carried out activities in different sections both in animal and crop section. The sections include orchard, green house, mushroom, poultry; annual crop, perennial, cattle, small. ruminants, pasture and many others activities done like, cleaning, feeding, weeding, castration, breed identification, spraying animals against external parasites, structures, Treatment of sick animals, budding, equipment identification. In the third chapter reports the impact of the attachment work experience that is relevant to academic and professional development of a student prior to the graduation where students put into practice what has been theoretically learnt in class and skills gained during the course of the attachment I gained several skills in production and management, ageing goats, disease investigation, and animal treatment. This industrial training was successfully completed and gained a lot of skills which will help me in the field and recommend that the university should provide enough tools and equipment that can be used by the students during the practical work, work plan or the time table should be provided in time to avoid poor coordination between the students and the lecturers. I also recommend that time should be managed well by both the students and the facilitators to enable the program to run smoothly and successfully.
