Industry and Community Projects
A key aspect of the undergraduate curriculum is to deliver opportunities for students to address authentic problems and issues.
To deliver these learning experiences, the University has partnered with a broad range of industry, community and government organisations to source genuine problems that allow students to tackle pressing challenges in a real world context.
Working in multidisciplinary groups, with academic oversight, students research, analyse and present solutions to the problems set by the external partner.
The projects deliver collaboration across discipline areas and provide opportunities to work with major industry partners.
