Course Summary
Media & Communication Internship helps you develop skills to create, negotiate and broker your own internship opportunity with support and advice from RMIT staff, then gain work experience in your field of practice. It prepares you for employment after you graduate, making you 'work-ready', flexible and adaptable. Your internship will be of 80 hours duration and can be with either a local or international employer. You get a chance to pitch your ideas and report back on your experience to your peers and a staff/industry panel.
To enable flexibility with securing an internship, you can elect to extend your internship duration by an additional 40 hours up to a maximum 120 hours total. These additional hours will not be assessed but will be covered by RMIT insurance.
Industry Internship Requirements An agreement including schedule and relevant insurance documentation is required to be completed before commencing each internship (local and international). International internships must be registered and processed through
RMIT Global Mobility (Melbourne) / RMIT Career Development and Employment (Vietnam).
In the case where a placement ends early, please refer to Changes or cancellation of WIL activities in the WIL Guideline.
