UG Business Internship I (3001GBS)

This 10CP elective course is available to all undergraduate Griffith Business School students. The course is designed to facilitate a successful transition from university life to employment. A second but equally important feature of this course is the focus on raising awareness of your own personal attributes. You will participate in a task, activity or project-based internship in a face-to-face, virtual/online or blended mode which can open up possibilities to work with small and medium enterprises, business, government and community organisations in locations outside of South-East Queensland (e.g. regional and remote areas of Australia and other capital cities). Each placement offered by a 'Host Organisation' is carefully considered and matched to a student who demonstrates the required business knowledge, skills, personal attributes and motivation required to complete the activity, task or project to the level expected of an intern. This course is not available for credit based on prior studies or work experience, however flexible arrangements can be organised to allow students to commence their internship component prior to the start of the trimester (e.g., in the case of Summer or Winter Vacation Programs). Please email gbsinternships@griffith.edu.au for more information on flexible arrangements. Fluency in written and spoken English is required. Prerequisite: Students must have completed a minimum of half of their degree program (a minimum of 120 credit points for a single degree and 160 credit points for a double degree) before trimester commencement. For students in the B Com/B Bus degree program, the completed courses must include 60 credit points of foundation courses and 20 credit points of courses in the Commerce major. Additional discipline specific information is included throughout the course profile. Co-requisites: NIL. Incompatible: 3000GBS UG Business Internship II. This course is selective and there is an application process which closes 4 weeks prior to the commencement of the Trimester.
