Arts Internship

Information brochure for students

Information brochure for host organisations

The Arts Internship Scheme allows you to gain hands on experience and will equip you with a range of practical skills, built on the knowledge you have gained during your study. Students considered for the scheme are drawn from a range of discipline backgrounds and are matched with suitable projects dependent on interests, major study area and experience.  During the course of your internship, you are expected to complete a short academic orientation and seminars. Throughout the semester, you will work on a research task under the joint supervision of an organisational host supervisor and an academic supervisor. By the end of the academic year, you will write a report (of about 7000 words) giving an account of the research project undertaken during the internship, in addition to giving an oral presentation.

Final placement will depend upon academic merit, availability and the application of an internal quota. In order to complete the process of placement allocation, you should finalise your enrolment by the completion of the normal enrolment period.  This includes making a separate application on the prescribed form for entry to the course.  If you are interested in this incredible opportunity, contact the Faculty Office on (08) 8313 3721 or via email prior to 31 March.

Assessment: approximately 7000 word major research project, attendance at seminars and supervisor meetings.
