Gain practical business experience, collaborating with other students on a consulting project addressing a real problem provided by our sponsor organisations. Sponsors include corporate, small or medium-sized enterprise, not-for-profit or government organisations.

In this unit you will:

• research the issues presented by the industry project and determine its scope and key deliverables in consultation with the sponsor
• apply theoretical knowledge learned in class, and critically analyse information and data accessed during research to provide possible solutions to the problems and challenges identified
• receive a total of six credit points towards your degree by successfully completing the Business School elective or selective unit of study.

The unit cannot count towards your major, minor or specialisation. As you’ll need to have at least six credit points of elective or selective space available to participate, we recommend planning your degree early to leave yourself room. Check your handbook for more information on how this unit can contribute towards your degree.

Once enrolled in the program, make sure you read the student responsibilities statement to ensure you understand your responsibilities.

A minimum enrolment number is required for the unit to proceed. If minimum numbers are not met the unit may be cancelled.
