Depending on the unit, the internship period will differ as some units do not run during the Summer and Winter breaks.

Typically, there are four intakes throughout the year:

  • Semester 1 (March-June)
  • Winter (early June-mid August)
  • Semester 2 (July-October) and
  • Summer (Nov-Feb)
Host organisations should note that for Semester 1 and 2, typically a student would complete 1-2 days per week depending on their study plan and other commitments.
 
For Winter, you can complete 4 weeks full-time and for Summer, there is flexibility where you can complete your hours in a block or part-time.
