Career-ready placements
Meaningful opportunities for students
An important part of your University of Newcastle experience is the opportunity to apply your curriculum knowledge and theory in an industry or 'real life' setting. This is what career-ready placements allow you to do. Career-ready placements can take the form of clinical, professional work placements, practicums, internships, or industry-led projects.
