Internships

Current Internship Opportunities

Are you an undergraduate, honours or masters student and looking for an exciting industry internship? Your internship can help identify the problems and solutions of the One Basin CRC’s partners working in the Murray-Darling Basin and lead to further opportunities for you to work on important areas of reseach and development.

This opportunity is available to students enrolled at our partner Universities including:

  • University of Sydney

  • Australian National University

  • Charles Sturt University

  • The University of Melbourne

  • University of Adelaide

  • Flinders University

Applications for these internship projects will be assessed by the CRC and industry partners and if successful, you will then need to negotiate the details of the internship directly with the industry partner and work with your University to set up a formal agreement.

For those who are successful in being awarded one of these internship projects, the One Basin CRC will invite you to participate in an online forum during the internship where you can meet and network with other interns and CRC partners. At the end of the internship you will be asked to prepare a brief (video) report on your experience. You will also be awarded a One Basin CRC certificate following completion of the internship.
