Description

Subject Area: Arts

The HUMS 2000 course is an elective in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. It may be taken at the end of a first year of study in a Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Social Science or other degree within the Faculty of Arts and Social Science and offers students work experience in a range of organisations utilising social sciences and humanities skills.

The internship provides work experience at a host organisation for 14 full days (105 working hours). This practical experience is accompanied by a reading program. The reading component examines different approaches to the study of organisations, their structures, functions and policies, as well as links these issues to the internship experience.

This course can also be studied in the following specialisations: Criminology, Environmental Studies, Media (Media Production), Media (Screen and Sound), Media (Comms & Journalism), and Political Economy

Note: Students must have achieved a credit level or better average across the courses in their degree. The internship may be included as part of a major sequence in the degree courses of the Faculty with the permission of the relevant Head of School.
