Description

In this work integrated learning experience you will apply and extend your theoretical knowledge and practical research, communication and collaboration skills in a professional environment. You will be placed part-time with a research institute, an international organisation, a non-government organisation, a government agency or a member of parliament (usually one day per week for 10-12 weeks). During this time, you will complete a research project negotiated with the workplace supervisor. Successful completion of the internship is dependent on the fulfilment of a contract that will be jointly negotiated between the internship director, workplace supervisor and you, the student. Your work placement will be supplemented with workshops at UNSW which focus on policy-making processes and reflective, professional practice.
