Reasons to consider a research internship

Why should I consider a research internship during candidature?

A research internship with a Research End User (REU) organisation provides a range of professional development & academic opportunities, including:

Building new skills and applying your research to test its impact on real challenges and possibly influence new ways of working.
Pivoting or testing your career direction & gaining industry sector insight before you complete your studies.
Extending your network with experienced practitioners in your field of interest.
Co-designing a project to include the research internship as an opportunity to write a chapter or two, or even a paper.
As a result of your research internship, being considered for future employment opportunities through your host organisation.

All enrolled doctorate students in any study area at UWA can apply for a research internship!
