Why attend the Internship and Graduate Expo?

Seize the moment: This expo is open to students across all faculties and subject areas interested in exploring internship and graduate opportunities.

Internships are a valuable and practical way for you to test different roles and organisations during your studies to help guide your future career path. 

Graduate roles can be an important stepping stone to help you transition into the workforce after you've completed your studies.

Explore opportunities: This expo is your chance to explore internships or graduate roles that align with your goals. Organisations at the expo are eager to meet you and discuss your aspirations.
