Plan Outline

The UNSW Co-op Program is a scholarship program set up by industry and The University of New South Wales to provide financial support and industry training for selected undergraduate students. The UNSW Co-op Program is based on existing undergraduate programs at UNSW with the following special features:

For high achieving students the UNSW Co-op Program offers an ideal combination of challenge and opportunity.
Co-op students receive structured industrial training and gain valuable work experience with up to four different employers.
On graduation, sponsors are always looking to recruit Co-op Scholars.
UNSW academics and senior managers from industry and government have jointly planned Co-op requirements.
In 2008 Co-op scholars are receiving a tax-free scholarship of $15,000 per annum.
At present we have 150 of Australia’s leading industries sponsoring 470 scholars across 24 different programs.

The Honours Co-op Program is a five year degree program which combines the requirements of the Bachelor of Commerce with 15 months of coordinated industrial experience. Industrial training extends outside university semesters.

To satisfy the Honours requirements, students undertake an additional year of study, completing Honours level courses (both compulsory and elective) and undertaking a research thesis. Students must have completed the prerequisite courses prior to their Honours year.
