Course overview
Mathematical Science students can apply for Industry internship opportunities (120 hours) advertised through Adelaide University's Work Integrated Learning (WIL) management system, InPlace. In some cases, students may be able to source their own Industry internship with College approval. Industry internships provide students with a professional setting where their academic knowledge can be applied, where they can reflect on the application of their technical skills in a professional context, and where development of their professional competencies can be reinforced.
Placements will be dependent on the availability of a host organisation, successful application, and completion of all required documentation (including Program Director approval) before the commencement date.
