Academic supervisors aim to maximise the learning from these activities with specialised support.
The course is available to domestic and international students and can be undertaken as a General Education course.
This course involves work learning experiences where students work directly in or with an industry or community organisation to gain real-world experience in preparation for a future career. Please visit WIL website for more information.

The IBM Client Engineering team is changing the way IBM engages with clients through showcasing at speed the business value and technical feasibility of technology solutions.
In Australia and New Zealand our team has grown from 8 people in early 2021 to 31 team members by the end of 2022. As the team expands, we want to attract top talent and specifically attract and deliver a great experience for early professionals. We would like your help to re-imagine our internship and graduate experience for IBM Client Engineering. The focus is on designing the content and structure of the early professional programs with human-centred design rather than marketing.
OzHarvest are Australia's leading food rescue organisation. We work closely with our food donors and our recipient agencies (charities) to ensure we are rescuing as much food as possible from going into landfill, and directing it to people in need.
We are currently very reactionary in our communication with both our food donors and recipient agencies, and we believe a more proactive form of regular and positive communication will help improve engagement and understanding of OzHarvest, our cause and our processes.
We wish to improve/expand upon our existing methods of communication by developing a new form of monthly or quarterly newsletter designed specifically for our food donors and recipient agencies. This state specific newsletter will help OzHarvest proactively increase engagement and understanding from both key stakeholders by sharing positive feedback of the work we do and reinforcing requirements from both stakeholders.
The Australian National Maritime Museum specialises in the exhibition of the country's unique maritime heritage and the connection the Australian people have with the oceans, rivers, and lakes that surround them.
The museum is looking for new ways to attract young people, particularly students interested in STEM, to come to the museum and engage with their spaces. This will include developing ideas and practical outcomes for how and where they might build a dedicated STEM space in the museum. This could mean utilising existing rooms within the museum or even creating a new space such as a floating laboratory.
The Powerhouse Museum is a world renown institution that presents exhibitions and programs that support the applied arts, applied sciences and creative industries.

Powerhouse is looking for ideas, strategies, and recommendations on communicating the climate action and sustainability commitments of their organisation, providing an opportunity to facilitate relationships between their audiences and positive climate action.
