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 but with the following special features:
  • UNSW academics and senior managers from industry and government have jointly planned them all.
  • Co-op students receive structured industrial training and gain valuable work experience with up to four different employers.
  • In 2008 Co-op scholars are receiving a tax-free scholarship of $15,000 per annum.
  • On graduation, sponsors are always looking to recruit Co-op Scholars.
  • In 2003, over 210 of Australia's leading employers are providing over 460 scholarships places in 19 programs.
  • For high achieving students the UNSW Co-op Program offers an ideal combination of challenge and opportunity.
This plan is within a four-year degree program combining the requirements of the BCom with coordinated industrial experience. Industrial experience extends outside University semesters.
