Description
AT THE CENTRE
Each successful applicant for participation in the program is allocated as an intern to a particular Centre at the outset of the session. The Centre will assign a supervisor for each intern. Students will work under the supervision of that Supervisor within the Centre for the duration of the internship.
Interns are required to attend their Centre for the equivalent of one day each week over 12 weeks, by arrangement between the intern and the Centre and confirmed with the Program Coordinator.
The range of projects in which the intern will be involved will be determined according to the project priorities of the Centre. However, in general it is expected that an intern’s duties will consist of a combination of research, project administrative, editing, writing, event coordination, preparing background materials, briefing papers, liaising with other organisations and doing relevant work of a substantive nature.
IN THE LAW SCHOOL
Interns will be placed in a class for their UNSW Law internship (in House) subject. There will be 6 hours of classes over the semester usually undertaken in 3 times 2 hour blocks.There will also be a presentation session for students to present on their experiences and work at the Centre
Attendance by interns at the Centre and at program seminars is mandatory. Students whose attendance falls below the specified 12 days (or equivalent) or who do not attend Program Seminars without a medical certificate or other adequate evidence will be deemed not to have completed the subject requirements and will not be eligible to pass the course.
