What it covers

FIT4190 is a Work Integrated Learning (WIL) unit that allows eligible students to receive academic credit for a self-sourced industry internship over the summer and winter teaching periods. The unit is designed to integrate professional workplace experience with academic reflection, industry evaluation, and structured learning outcomes. You complete a paid internship placement totalling 230 hours, normally undertaken over 6 consecutive weeks full-time. Placements must be approved by the Faculty prior to commencement and must meet program requirements relating to supervision, relevance to IT, and workplace conditions. Throughout the placement, you are supported through academic check-ins and assessment activities including professional reflections, workplace evaluations, and a final presentation. FIT4190 provides you with the opportunity to develop industry experience, professional skills, and workplace readiness while progressing through your degree.
