Syllabus
The unit bridges and extends the classroom knowledge and the real working environments. It provides an extended intensive period where realistic and comprehensive understanding of the complexity of professional settings can be experienced. Students are required to extend their engagement in everyday workplace activity where they can examine theories and practices, and refine their own developing understanding of professional practice. The internship extension is a tangible link between the university and the workplace and benefits graduate employability.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of the unit, students will be able to:
1. Demonstrate the acquisition of work experience and transferable skills through extended engagement in the workplace;
2. Communicate, interact and work with colleagues;
3. Demonstrate engagement with authentic professional work problem solving by using methods and theories gained in the course;
4. Critically reflect upon and evaluate work practices, standards and cultures;
