  • Enrolled doctoral students are encouraged to plan ahead for their future research internship.You can co-design the R&D internship project with the research end-user organisation (REU) and plan how it might contribute to your thesis & professional development. 
  • A good time to do this is when you are preparing your Research Proposal and your completion plan to accommodate a minimum of 60 business days over 3 months for a research internship (from Confirmation of Candidature & complete it before 6 months of submitting your thesis).
  • Check the Professional Development events available to help you prepare and plan for a future research internship via HDRhub.
  • In HDRhub, add your own Goal to submit a research internship agreement before 17 months on commencement of full time studies, or part time equivalent.
