Co-op Replacement Scholarships
A late entry Co-op Program scholarship in your area of study
From time to time, a late entry Co-op replacement scholarship in your area of study may be available.
Being awarded a UNSW Co-op Program scholarship is an outstanding addition to your resume and an excellent opportunity for you to gain professional development and experience prior to graduation.
There are academic requirements for applying for each advertised vacancy which vary depending on the program area e.g. credit minimum across all courses except GenEds. You must read and check that you meet the academic requirements outlined in each advertisement before applying.
Co-op one-off Internships
A single internship with one of the Co-op Program's
industry leading partners
Co-op managed internships may attract UOC and HECS & may count toward your degree. Engineering & some Science Internships are not for credit, do not attract HECS. The UOC awarded after successful completion of the relevant internship courses (see details below) will only count toward your degree IF it can be accommodated within your degree program. For details, request a Progression Check via the Nucleus Student Hub.
