BU3101 - Professional Internship
| Credit points: | 03 |
| Year: | 2019 |
| Student Contribution Band: | Band 3 |
| Administered by: |
Students must have completed 36 BU/BX credit points and be enrolled in their final year of study. Students must log into InPlace to apply for advertised internships or to submit applications for self-sourced internships. Permission to enrol in this subject will only be granted when an approved placement is secured. External students must self-source their own internship. All self-sourced applications require WIL Coordinator approval and must include a signed Confirmation of Offer form.
This subject is one of three capstones offered through the Work Integrated Learning (WIL) Program for Business. The subject is designed to integrate knowledge and skills developed throughout the degree in a practical workplace setting by undertaking an approved industry placement. Students are required to complete a minimum 100 hours of productive work which aligns with their major. Existing workplaces are not an option for BU3101 internships. Students who are in paid employment should apply for BU3103 Independent Project. Students cannot self-enrol, but must apply on InPlace (inplace.jcu.edu.au) and be granted permission to enrol in the subject. Application deadlines are communicated to eligible students via their jcu email prior to the start of each study period. Students who successfully secure an internship and who do not fulfil the agreed conditions of internship and subsequently fail to deliver for their industry partner are not permitted to re-apply for an internship or to re-enrol in BU3101. However, students can still gain valuable industry experience by undertaking BU3102 Multidisciplinary Project. More information on the Business WIL options and the application process is available on the College WIL website and on the WIL in BBus Community on LearnJCU. Students should contact tes.enrolments@jcu.edu.au if unsure of their eligibility for WIL. Students at JCUB and JCUS should consult Academic Staff.
