Test drive a career through an internship

Start building your professional experience while you study by undertaking an internship. Internships are a great way to gain practical skills, build your network, and ‘test drive’ the types of roles you want to pursue after graduation.

Discover post-study work opportunities that suit you

Whether you are looking to settle down in a new city or take your skills back home to start a career, it’s advisable to explore the range of post-study work options available to you upon graduation.

Regional destinations such as Adelaide are a popular choice for students looking to get the most out of their visa. Recently named Australia’s most liveable city+ (thanks to its safety and affordability), Adelaide is known for its progressive industries and evolving technological landscape.
