Internship - PICT816

This unit provides for students the chance to complete an approximately 12 week internship program. The internship integrates work and learning for postgraduate students within a business or organisation that focuses on Policing, Intelligence, Counter Terrorism or Security. The content of assignments and related work will be determined in collaboration between the intern, course convener and workplace supervisor. Students will explore issues internal to the organisation such as its goals, structure, management and work practices. In addition, they will be expected to investigate in what ways their workplace experience draws on, reinforces or otherwise, the academic material delivered in their wider program. This unit is expected to foster a self-reflective perspective on the internship experience and an ability to situate workplace activities and experiences within a wider academic context.
