The aim of this course is to use the internship experience to enable students to develop their engineering skills and practice. Students will be placed in industry, working full-time and assessed for academic credit. The internships will be aligned with the aims of the engineering program and its areas of specialisation. Students will experience a real-life engineering workplace and understand how their engineering and professional skills and knowledge can be utilised in industry. They will also be able to demonstrate functioning engineering knowledge, both new and exisiting, and identify areas of further development for their future careers.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion, students will have the knowledge and skills to:
Upon completion of an internship, students will be able to demonstrate the following outcomes:
- Experience of applying existing engineering knowledge in similar or new situations
- Ability to identify when new engineering knowledge is required, and apply it
- Ability to integrate existing and new technical knowledge for industrial application
- Ability to demonstrate the impact of the internship on their learning and professional development through mapping to relevant Stage 2 Engineers Australia technical competencies
- Understanding of lifelong learning processes through critical reflection of internship experiences.
