Course overview

Students spend 120-150 hours working in the private, public, community, business, not-for-profit or arts sectors. This provides the student with an opportunity to experience a hands-on professional environment in which to observe and apply their knowledge and skills from their degree. Internships may be project-based and/or reflect day-to-day activities of the host organisation. Students may have the option of completing a remote internship with an organisation based in South Australia or elsewhere. The internship is supported by a preliminary half-day seminar focusing on career readiness and professional preparation. Students can apply for internship opportunities advertised through the university or may be able to source their own internship. Final placement will be dependent on the availability of a host organisation, successful application to the host organisation and completion of all required paperwork before the commencement of the internship. Students cannot self-enrol in this course and will be enrolled by the Internships Team after securing their approved internship. For inquiries about internship processes and timelines, please contact the Internships Team (internships@adelaide.edu.au). Students must complete the program to the satisfaction of their host organisation as well as an academic supervisor to be eligible to pass this course.
