All students will undertake work integrated learning and industry-driven projects throughout their IT degree and Business Administration degree.

WIL strengthens your essential job-ready skills and experiences and allows you to learn about workplace culture, prepare for the future world of work, develop professional networks and build your employability skills. 

WIL may be conducted on or off campus, face-to-face or online, and paid or unpaid. Each student is jointly supervised by an academic supervisor and a placement supervisor.
