UHE Australia offers guaranteed internships for eligible students in IT and Engineering Management degrees, providing industry experience as part of selected courses from July 2026. UHE Guaranteed Internships! Gain real world industry experience while you study at UHE Australia UHE guarantees internships for all eligible students enrolled in selected degree courses, helping students build practical skills, confidence, and employability before graduation. Key highlights: • Guaranteed for eligible students* • Embedded within your degree • Industry aligned experience • Commencing July 2026 OVERVIEW ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Overview UHE now guarantees internships to all eligible* students in its degree courses of Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT), Master of Information Technology (MIT) and Master of Engineering Management (MEM). Internships are part of UHE's commitment to maximising graduate employment outcomes. The first internships commence in July 2026. All interns will have industry-partners and will be completing industry-relevant, real-world work giving them valuable knowledge, skills and attributes. Internships are unpaid. *Student Eligibility Criteria The following eligibility criteria apply: Eligible students must have passed all prerequisite subjects as specified on the course structure. The timing of the internship must align with the advertised course structure. All students are required to complete forms, training and other pre-internship requirements in the term directly prior to their internship. Internships must follow the allocated subject outlines, including completion of required assessment. Each students’ skills, experience, readiness, and professional suitability will be assessed to determine whether the student is appropriate for an Individual Internship, a Group Internship or an On-Campus Internship. The internship model selection will be at the discretion of UHE to determine the most appropriate placement alignment for each student. Students who do not meet attendance and other reasonable performance expectations may be subject to reassignment to an alternative internship model at the discretion of UHE. Failed subjects (with/out compelling and compassionate circumstances) and record of academic integrity breaches (if applicable) will be taken into consideration when determining the internship model. Students must be up to date on all UHE financial payments (student fees) and/or have a UHE approved payment plan in-place. Frequently asked questions Why does UHE have internships? Research has proven that students who do internships as part of higher education are more likely to land graduate employment. Are internships required? Do students have to do internships? All Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT), Master of Information Technology (MIT) and Master of Engineering Management (MEM) students are required to do either a capstone project or an industry internship in their final term. What is the difference between a capstone project and an industry internship? The capstone pathway provides an academically supervised, research project-based, industry-aligned experience. The internship pathway offers supervised placements in industry contexts. Why does UHE offer a choice of capstone project or industry internship? The pathways approach recognises and supports the diversity of student goals, backgrounds and career intentions, while maintaining consistent academic standards. It enables students to demonstrate achievement of course learning outcomes through different but equally rigorous modes of learning, either through applied research and project work or through authentic industry practice. What are the three types of industry internships? Students who choose the industry internship option, will be placed in one of three internship types. The selection of type is made at the discretion of UHE, in consultation and consideration of the student’s preferences. (a) Individual Internships _ an individual student working on-site in a business supervised by professionals, OR  (b) Group Internships _ a group of UHE students working on-site in a corporate environment (either in the industry-partner office or in the InternMatch business office) supervised by a business mentor / industry expert, OR (c) On-campus Internships _ an individual student or a group of UHE students working on-campus in a dedicated hub supervised by an academic mentor who is liaising with an actual employer / business partner. Is the on-campus internship the same as the capstone project? Capstone projects and on-campus internships are two different models of final term experience. Both provide a high-quality learning experience and support the achievement of strong and equivalent graduate outcomes. Both engage students in industry-aligned real-world contexts, addressing significant problems, inquiry and/or evaluation and thereby support graduate career transition. Both require students to engage in research-based inquiry and application. The primary differences between the two models are that: (a) in the on-campus internship, a minimum of 180 hours is required as a hurdle for passing the subject, whereas in the capstone project model, there is no hour requirement hurdle; (b) the capstone project enables students to identify and pursue a bounded and focused inquiry of their choosing and involves a heightened degree of self-determination and decision making, whereas in the on-campus internship, the host employer / business partner may involve [a] student/s in a range of tasks and responsibilities of wider reaching scope throughout the term; and (c) the capstone project resembles a thesis and would be a strong preparation pathway for advanced study, such as for master students who are considering pursuing a PhD upon graduation. The on-campus internship resembles graduate employment and is a clearer pathway for students wishing to transition into the workforce upon graduation. What are graduate attributes and how do they relate to internships? Graduate attributes are the qualities of all UHE graduates across all courses. Some people refer to graduate attributes as Internships soft skills. Internships are an ideal way to develop these skills. UHE identifies graduate attributes as, (a) strong habits of mind, (b) enacted emotional intelligence, (c) digital expertise, (d) social justice and (e) cultural competency. Internships are the ideal way to further develop these attributes. When students are doing work for an internship host, they need to draw-upon what they have learned throughout the course and apply theory to practice (strong habits of mind). Through on-site interactions with colleagues, students directly learn which communication styles work best (enacted emotional intelligence). UHE trains students to use (in their studies), the same tools they will be using in the workplace and therefore in internships (digital expertise). Education is not only about learning a particular discipline or preparing for a specific industry. UHE fosters education which makes the world a better place. Internships allow students to reflect on and have conversations about applied morality and ethics (social justice). Australia is proud to be home of the world's oldest living culture and benefitting from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ways of knowing, being and doing. Internships are an ideal way of learning and applying these approaches. In addition, internships enable engagement with diverse colleagues from intersecting cultures (cultural competency). Do internships give students course relevant knowledge, skills and experience? UHE supports students to do internships related to courses and aligned with personalised career goals. Do students have access to UHE support while doing internships? Students are the focus of UHE while the student is doing traditional studies on campus and while they are doing internships. UHE offers effective wrap-around supports and services to ensure that students have a high quality and safe learning experience through internships. This includes full protection and risk mitigation as outlined in the Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Policy and Procedure. The link is available here. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms Where can students access the UHE internship policy? At UHE, the associated internship policy is called the Work Integrated Learning Policy and Procedure and it is available at this link. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms How many hours will students spend in internships? Each course requires a minimum of 180 hours in the internship. Study time, preparing assessments, and doing presentations are in addition to the 180 hours. Some hosts require additional hours which will be clearly communicated to students for their consideration of proposed matches. How many days per week are internships? Students are required to complete a minimum total of 180 internship hours, which is usually completed as two 7.5-hour days per week for 12 weeks. Some hosts require additional hours which will be clearly communicated to students for their consideration of proposed matches. How are the hours students spend in industry internships validated? The host employer tracks and confirms whether students have completed their required hours. How many weeks are internships? The standard internship runs for 12 weeks, within the standard UHE term. What if students want to spend more hours in internships? The standard internship is 2 days (7.5 hours) per week across 12 weeks for a total of 180 hours. Sometimes students want to do additional hours for more practical experience. UHE will accommodate these additional hours where possible. However, students will only receive the standard 20 credits (no additional). Do students have the option of completing internship hours in a shorter block? The standard internship is 2 days (7.5 hours) per week across 12 weeks for a total of 180 hours. Sometimes students request a different arrangement such as 3 days (7.5 hours) per week across 8 weeks. UHE will accommodate this flexible scheduling where possible. However, assessment dates and deadlines (e.g., on-campus presentations) will remain as scheduled in the subject outlines. Can students specify a certain company / business as internship host? Students can request [a] specific company, or business[es] and UHE will investigate whether the suggested host will take an intern. Are internships on-site in businesses? Usually students will do internship hours on-site in the host businesses. Students will be notified in advance if they will be spending their internship hours at the InternMatch office or on-campus. If students are placed in the on-campus internship, are they still required to attend the minimum hours? Yes, there will be an identified hub and host for on-campus internships, student attendance will be monitored and required hours will be validated. Hour and performance requirements are a hurdle to passing the subject. If students choose the capstone project, are they still required to attend the minimum hours? Students are strongly advised to attend the timetabled classes and do the self-study hours. Some assessment tasks are completed and marked during on-campus class time. However, hour and performance requirements are not a hurdle to passing the subject. In other words, the capstone project does not require the 180 on-site minimum hour requirement as per the industry internships. Will students need to travel to internships? Yes, students will need to arrange and fund their own travel to and from internship sites. One of the advantages of Melbourne-based internships is the excellent transportation infrastructure, including free zones in the Central Business District (CBD). Do students need to come on-campus while they are doing internships? Yes, students need to come on-campus during internships. Students will not be attending weekly for the subject associated with the internship but will be required to attend at specified weeks / times, for example, for assessment tasks which are run and graded during timetabled class times. Students will also be attending campus for other subjects running at the same time as internships. What if students are sick or unable to attend scheduled internship hours? Minimum internship hours must be completed to pass the subject (20 credits) associated with the internship (in addition to also passing the assessment). Students must follow instructions to notify the internship host of unexpected absences and must arrange to make-up minimum hours on another occasion. Are internships individual or group placements? Some internships are individual (i.e., one UHE student with one internship host) and other internships are group (i.e., more than one UHE student with one internship host). UHE will make the final decision as to whether a student will thrive in an individual or group internship, and whether on-site or on-campus. Student preference will be sought and seriously considered. Students who are initially placed in individual internships who do not meet attendance, punctuality and performance requirements may be moved to a group placement or from on-site to on-campus, or from industry internship to capstone project. Are there performance expectations for internships? Yes, there are internship performance expectations such as attendance, punctuality, respect, integrity, and positive attitude. Students must also meet all conditions as specified in the Student Code of Conduct Policy and Procedure. The link is available here. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms What happens if students do not meet internship expectations? A student who has been given feedback that they are not meeting internship performance expectations and does not improve may be removed from that placement opportunity. Hour and performance requirements are a hurdle to passing the subject. What happens if a student does not pass the internship? Internships are structured through 20-credit CORE subjects. All CORE subjects must be passed as part of requirements for degree completion (graduation). Students who do not pass internship subjects will need to repeat the subject again in a future term. Can students do internships in any term / stage of the course? Internships are normally completed in the final term of a student's course. Subjects with internships normally have prerequisite requirements. If a student has met prerequisites and has a relevant reason for requesting an internship in an alternate term (instead of their final term), requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Where do students complete their internships? UHE internships are designed to be in corporate business settings. If the building cannot accommodate group internships, the students will work in a dedicated office building in the Melbourne CBD, and a business mentor and/or employer will come to the students. In some circumstances, students will complete their internship hours in an on-campus hub, but consistent with all UHE internships, the students working on-campus will also be doing real-world work with an actual business partner. All students, in all settings, are required to report to the dedicated place to complete their minimum 180 hours. Do students have other subjects while they are doing internships? Yes, internships are run through 20-credit subjects. Full-time students normally complete 40 credits per term. This means that students will normally have two 10-credit subjects running alongside the internship. Some students will plan in advance to redistribute their study load in earlier terms so that they can reduce their other subject load while doing their capstone projects or industry internships. Can students do internships where they are already employed? Students can request a current employer as internship host. On a case-by-case basis, the request will be considered. To be approved, the internship would need to align with the subject and course learning outcomes and provide opportunities for students to develop / extend knowledge, skills and attributes from the tasks and responsibilities they are already doing at work. Are internships paid? UHE internships (and thereby interns) are unpaid. On a case-by-case basis, students who are approved to do an internship with a host who is already employing them may be eligible to continue to be paid, which may or may not include payment for internship hours. Can students get prior credit exemptions from doing internships? (e.g., if a student has years of work experience in the discipline / industry of study) No, prior credit exemptions are not granted for subjects associated with internships. UHE will source / arrange an internship experience which further develops, enhances and/or extends a student's knowledge, skills and attributes. Students with significant prior work experience may also choose to do a capstone project rather than an industry internship. Are internships pass/fail, or are standard grading systems applied? To pass subjects associated with internships, students must complete the minimum hour requirements (180 hours) and meet performance requirements. There is also structured assessment apart from, but aligned with, the internship experience. Students must achieve a total passing mark on the assessment specified by the subject outline. Standard grading processes are applied as aligned with the Student Assessment Policy and Procedure. The policy is available at this link. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms • Does academic integrity apply to internships, and can students use artificial intelligence within internships? Yes, students in internships are required to follow the UHE Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. The link is available here. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms Whether or not students will be using AI during on-site internship hours is determined on a case-by-case basis with the internship hosts (and/or mentors). AI Guidance notes on the subject outlines after each assessment item describe whether and how students are permitted to use AI for assessment. UHE designs academic integrity friendly assessment and teaches students how to use artificial intelligence responsibly and ethically to develop career attributes. What if the student has no networks to find an internship host? Students are not required to find internship hosts. UHE offers full services and supports, including arranging high quality internship hosts for students. Do students need to pass interviews to obtain internships? Most internship hosts want to assess student resumes, and some will select internship candidates on the basis of competitive interviews. UHE supports students to prepare high quality resumes, and to prepare for interviews. What if the student is unhappy with their internship experience? Students are encouraged to communicate concerns as soon as possible through their UHE Academic Educators, Academic Course Manager, Chief Academic Officer and/or Student Support. Students are assured of the full scope of avenues as outlined through the Student Complaints and Appeals Policy and Procedure, available here. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms How are students assessed during internships? To pass subjects associated with internships, students must complete the minimum hour requirements (180 hours) and performance requirements outlined in the code of conduct. In addition, students must achieve a total passing mark on the structured assessment specified by the subject outline. Standard grading processes are applied as aligned with the Student Assessment Policy and Procedure. The policy is available at this link. https://www.uhe.edu.au/policies-procedures-forms Does UHE work with any external companies to help source and administer internships? Yes, UHE is proud to work in partnership with InternMatch, which creates, coordinates, tailors and supports internships to propel students into the workforce, grow company teams and help higher education providers (UHE) give students meaningful direction. More about InternMatch is available here. https://internmatch.io/ ADMISSIONS OPEN Promotional Scholarships Available! Speak to us to check your eligibility.

Return to Course Master of Information Technology IT5004.20 MIT Capstone Project This subject is the culmination of the Master of Information Technology thereby supporting students to undertake a capstone project, reflecting, researching, consolidating, demonstrating and applying advanced level knowledge, skills and attributes developed throughout the course-based learning experience. The Master-level capstone project enables mastery learning of the subject matter, applying knowledge to real-world problems, and developing valuable skills relevant to degree-related graduate employment. The capstone project is set in real-world information technology contexts and environments. Through inquiry into real-world technological infrastructure, organisational systems, stakeholders, and decision-making environments, the subject supports the transition from academic study to professional practice while strengthening advanced level professional judgement, organisational awareness, application of theory and research, and industry leadership capacities in contemporary information technology and related business settings. Under academic supervision, students plan and complete a major project (research or applied) on a topic of their choice in the context of information technology. Drawing on information technology frameworks, principles, theories and research outcomes, students achieve deep knowledge and application into a particular problem or challenge. Through structured analytical inquiry and reflective integration of advanced level theory, research and practice, students demonstrate problem-solving and leadership capability, independent judgement, and professional communication consistent with AQF Level 9 expectations. The outcomes of this capstone experience form a strong portfolio of achievement to demonstrate their competencies to graduate employers, achieve promotions within launched careers and/or further develop research and consultation capabilities. As a culminating course requirement, students complete either IT5004.20 MIT Capstone Project or IT5340.20 MIT Industry Internship. Both pathways are designed as comparable learning experiences, each supporting the achievement of equivalent course learning outcomes through different modes of applied learning and therefore both provide a high-quality learning experience, are appropriate to AQF Level 9 and support the achievement of strong and equivalent graduate outcomes. All assessment is conducted in accordance with UHE policies and procedures, with academic staff responsible for evaluating student performance and providing feedback under the oversight of the Chief Academic Officer.

Return to Course Master Of Engineering Management ENG4012.10 Entrepreneurship and Innovation This subject provides students with an understanding of the key concepts and frameworks relevant to entrepreneurship and innovation. Students gain an understanding of what innovation and entrepreneurship are and their relevance to economic growth and opportunities, creativity, and new venture start-ups. These topics are introduced from a theoretical and knowledge perspective and further applied to engineering examples and situations to provide students with a contextualised and focused understanding of the value and impact of entrepreneurship and innovation on engineering and engineering management. Students learn about developing, sustaining, and leading innovative and entrepreneurial organisations, knowledge management, intellectual property, innovation strategy and product life cycle. Students engage in class discussions and apply their knowledge to case studies and worked examples. Industry 4.0 creates a foundation for such discussions. Assessment tasks also provide students with the opportunity to gain contextualised knowledge relevant to developing a business proposal through the application of weekly learning. Individual students assess their own competence using their Portfolio and by setting personal learning goals. Individual students set up a program-based professional portfolio, which is to track and facilitate professional learning and development across all subjects of the MEM program. This is done by self-assessing their competencies at the start of each subject/semester and setting personal learning goals to work on the development of their skills and competencies, and to be prepared for the real world of work after graduation.

Through engagement with real-world organisational systems, stakeholders, and decision-making environments, the subject supports the transition from academic study to professional practice and/or further study while strengthening professional judgement, organisational awareness, application of theory and research, and responsible leadership in contemporary engineering and related business settings. Under academic and professional supervision, students systematically plan and undertake an advanced project about organisational practice, management systems, governance structures, and/or decision-making approaches. Drawing on established engineering management frameworks, principles, theories and research outcomes, students assess effectiveness, contextual influences, risk considerations, stakeholder implications, and strategic alignment, and formulate evidence-informed and research-supported professional recommendations. Through structured analytical inquiry and reflective integration of theory, research and practice, students demonstrate advanced problem-solving capability, independent judgement, and professional communication consistent with AQF Level 9 expectations. The outcomes of this capstone experience form a strong portfolio of achievement to demonstrate their competencies to graduate employers. As a culminating course requirement, students complete either ENG4015 MEM Capstone Project or ENG4315 MEM Industry Internship. Both pathways are designed as comparable learning experiences, each supporting the achievement of equivalent course learning outcomes through different modes of applied learning and therefore both provide a high-quality learning experience, are appropriate to AQF Level 9 and support the achievement of strong and equivalent graduate outcomes. All assessments are conducted in accordance with UHE policies and procedures, with academic staff responsible for evaluating student performance and providing feedback under the oversight of the Chief Academic Officer.
