Host an intern
CBE Internships offers industry collaborators the opportunity to host exceptional students.
About
CBE Internships provides students with an opportunity to gain real-world experience through a workplace project of 120 hours (for 6 units) or 240 hours (for 12 units). This amounts to approximately 12 or 24 hours per week over 10 weeks. CBE Internships also includes five practical workshops throughout the semester to prepare students for their internships and future careers.
The internship project has a strong focus on developing students’ employability in terms of their teamwork, communication and problem-solving skills. Each intern will show evidence of competencies and skills acquired through close working relationships and collaboration with colleagues, a workplace supervisor and an academic advisor. The interns have ongoing support from the CBE Careers and Student Employability team, the course convener, tutor and workplace supervisor from the host organisation.
