FSDO13-700: Internship A

Internship A provides high-achieving students with an immersive, situated learning experience in a professional workplace relevant to their major. Across the semester, students complete approximately 96 hours of supervised placement, integrated with fortnightly academic supervision and a structured program of assessment.  The placement develops practical knowledge of professional environments, workplace conventions, and discipline-specific skills. Fortnightly meetings with the academic supervisor support students to interpret their experiences, link practice to theory, and navigate practical, ethical, or legal challenges as they arise. Through reflective journaling, an industry analysis, and a curated portfolio of work, students consolidate their learning, develop professional self-awareness, and produce evidence of their emerging capability.  Together, these elements prepare students for the transition from study to professional practice.
