Content

This unit enables students studying the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Industry) to undertake an extended placement within industry. Placements must be approved by the Unit Chair before enrolment in the unit and must be for 60 working days (450 hours). This practice-based experience is intended to go beyond the minimum required professional practice knowledge and skills typically sought from graduate professional engineers (as defined by the Australian engineering profession) and provide the opportunity for further progressed professional practice knowledge and skills to support student development leading up to graduation. The associated learning and assessment activities for this unit are largely online with the exception of an industry visit by an academic supervisor which may be in-person or via video conference.
