Course overview

This course allows students to work as an intern with a community, business/industry or government agency engaged in environmental policy, planning and management activities, or with an individual or group engaged in environmental research. During their internships, students can choose or will be assigned specific projects by their 'sponsors' and will prepare a report on the methods and results of their projects. The course coordinator can assist students to identify suitable sponsors and projects and will monitor student progress in weekly seminars. The mode of placements varies but requires 100 contact hours working at, or for, the host organisation.
