Overview

Students are placed as interns with a host partner organisation and complete either a unique research project or work experience-based project jointly defined by the host partner organisation and the unit coordinator. The host partner organisations are from a diverse range of industries and sectors, including government departments, private industry and not-for-profit organisations. Students communicate the research or work experience in a final project in the format specified by the host partner organisation, such as a research report, consultation paper, manual or submission. The host partner organisation provides field supervision and the faculty provides academic supervision.

The main component of the unit involves students undertaking a minimum of 144 hours equivalent of placement in order to complete a final project agreed upon between the host partner organisation and the faculty. The host partner organisation will appoint a field supervisor for the project although the Chief Examiner remains the principal assessor for the unit.
