Description

Students develop a structured industry experience project in the area of their major study in a self-sourced internship. This involves the negotiation of a learning contract to identify the outcomes of such experience and to design a detailed program of activities to achieve these outcomes. Supervision is provided to assist students in identifying the capabilities they need to develop in completing the placement and to provide support and advice during their industry involvement. Students are assisted to reflect on their learning experience in the workplace in the context of their chosen field of study.

Students must undertake a paid or non-paid internship of 40 hours (minimum) in the teaching session that they are enrolled in to be eligible to study this subject. The internship must also be specifically linked to the degree that they are studying.
