SCIE5001: Science HDR Internship Experience

2023 unit information

The University of Sydney and Industry sectors recognise the need for and impact of Higher Degree by Research (HDR) candidates and encourages candidates to transfer their skills from theoretical to real-world domains, thereby transforming Australian business through University research collaboration. HDR students in the Faculty of Science have the opportunity to undertake an internship opportunity for coursework credit by undertaking the SCIE5001 unit of study. During this internship you will be involved in industry and client-based projects, which will offer you the opportunity to apply skills and theories from your science research degree. This will provide you with firsthand experience of how these skills and theories can support the solving of scientific problems in a practical and commercial context. You will have the opportunity to facilitate the development, designing and implementation of commercial strategies, procedures and practices. By taking part in these processes, you will gain insight into the application of scientific knowledge to help an organisation realise its competitive potential. Successful completion of an internship and this unit of study will refine skills that are essential for your future employment, in both the academic and industrial sectors.
