Work Experience - PLAN0081

As a key part of their planning degree, students must undertake 48 weeks of approved employment related to the professional objectives of the Planning and Urban Development Program: for example, in private development companies, planning consultancies, state government departments and agencies, or with local councils. This is normally undertaken in the twelve months following the end of Session 1 of Year 3. The Program Head must approve the type of employment proposed. The requirements of courses PLAN0081 and PLAN0082 Work Experience must be successfully completed before a student will be permitted to graduate. Assessment components include documentation and submission of a work experience diary, a reflective report and participation in a compulsory seminar.
