Professional Internship Program
As restrictions begin to ease off across most states in Australia, we are now starting to receive more internship opportunities from our host companies. Given the current stages of lockdown, we have exciting remote internship opportunities, which have proven to be a successful and convenient option for young professionals and host companies. We also have a small number of in-company opportunities to choose from, and we expect many more to come!
Please select your preferred option here and register if you are ready to undertake your internship now. Please note that our Professional Internship Program includes a fee of $2,500 ($3,500 Engineering), which you can pay by instalments. The cost of the program covers your consultation, preparation, internship placement, insurance, certification and ongoing support.
