In addition to meeting the requirement to have completed a minimum of 36 credit points of BU or BX subjects and enrolled in your last year of your course, students wishing to undertake the multidisciplinary project subject must submit an application on InPlace - https://inplace.jcu.edu.au. Use your jc user name and password to log on. Details of the projects available can be found on this site. This process only applies to students enrolled on the Townsville or Cairns campus. This subject is not available to students enrolled externally.

This subject enables final year students enrolled in the College of Business, Law and Governance to work together to design, implement and evaluate a real life project sourced from industry partner organisations. Identification of suitable projects occurs through collaboration between the College and industry partner organisations and project details will be available on the College WIL website. Students work in groups of up to six and it is expected that each student allocate at least 10 hrs per week to the project over a 13 week period. Groups will have a mix of majors and students will be advised of their allocated group in the first workshop session. To be eligible, students must have completed a minimum 36 credit points of BU or BX subjects and be enrolled in their final year of study. Students enrolled in Townsville and Cairns can self enrol in the BU3102 Multidisciplinary Project subject. External students are not eligible to enrol in this subject.
