The School of Communication and Arts supports a number of placement opportunities in its commitment to help students reach their career aspirations. Internships, practicums, field trips and work experience are a great way to gain professional experience, build self confidence and offer the opportunity to make valuable industry connections.
While the School placements team provides advice and support, you are responsible for identifying an organisation who is prepared to offer you an internship that fits the course requirements.
The School will often post internship opportunities to the JACpot Facebook page. Please 'like' us to get updates sent directly to your newsfeed. Students have previously been placed at many different organisations in Brisbane, interstate and internationally.
To apply for internship courses or any work experience related to your studies, please complete and return the Placement Application Form to the Placements Administrator (student.commarts@uq.edu.au). For placements under any other course, please contact your course coordinator in the first instance.
