This internship with available arts institutions and professional practitioners in and potentially beyond the ACT is designed to provide the student with practical insights into the activities and the workings of a professional studio practice. The specific nature of the contact work will depend on the requirements of the supervisor, who may include artistic directors, studio managers, professional artists/designers/craftspeople, registrars, art educators and learning and access programmers. The internship aims to provide an opportunity for preparation towards a career in art, craft and design. It is supported by an academic supervisor who is a specialist in the internship area. Enrolment in this course is subject to the approval of the course convenor and an agreed internship placement, negotiated between student, convenor and host organisation.

Where the internship involves travel outside of Canberra (including to other parts of the ACT), students will only be permitted to undertake this internship upon completion of ANU required travel documentation and the approval of all travel documentation by the relevant delegate.

Academic Integrity

Academic integrity is a core part of the ANU culture as a community of scholars. The University’s students are an integral part of that community. The academic integrity principle commits all students to engage in academic work in ways that are consistent with, and actively support, academic integrity, and to uphold this commitment by behaving honestly, responsibly and ethically, and with respect and fairness, in scholarly practice.

The University expects all staff and students to be familiar with the academic integrity principle, the Academic Integrity Rule 2021, the Policy: Student Academic Integrity and Procedure: Student Academic Integrity, and to uphold high standards of academic integrity to ensure the quality and value of our qualifications.

The Academic Integrity Rule 2021 is a legal document that the University uses to promote academic integrity, and manage breaches of the academic integrity principle. The Policy and Procedure support the Rule by outlining overarching principles, responsibilities and processes. The Academic Integrity Rule 2021 commences on 1 December 2021 and applies to courses commencing on or after that date, as well as to research conduct occurring on or after that date. Prior to this, the Academic Misconduct Rule 2015 applies.

 

The University commits to assisting all students to understand how to engage in academic work in ways that are consistent with, and actively support academic integrity. All coursework students must complete the online Academic Integrity Module (Epigeum), and Higher Degree Research (HDR) students are required to complete research integrity training. The Academic Integrity website provides information about services available to assist students with their assignments, examinations and other learning activities, as well as understanding and upholding academic integrity.
