In order to achieve perfect balance between the two I think the length of the course should be increase or the course should be splitted in two semester where in in one semester basic theory and practical implication can be covered and in the advance course it should be more assignments and knowledge from industrial point of view. If the course is not big enough which can not be splitted into basic and advance one other way is if university can bring in or if it can create more opportunities for internship or Co-op. Its also possible if professor gives assignment which are from industrial point of view or of industrial level than also our target of student ready to work in industry can be obtained efficiently.
