Course description
The internship provides a range of opportunities for students to work with UQ-based, or affiliated, organisations and researchers, assisting with project based work, event organisation, and editorial and publishing activities. Students will gain practical experience by working within professional organisations involved in literary and historical research, library resource management, writing and publishing, communications, and cultural heritage management. During the internship, students will critically engage with the internship through journal writing and a research-based essay; they may also contribute to other publications and scholarly outcomes. Due to the selective nature of this course, competitive entry will apply. The Internship application form is available here.
