MPI700 Postgraduate Internship

Assessment

The assessment tasks in this unit include the submission of the following assignments for evaluation by the assessment panel:

Task Value Deadline
Assignment 1 20% Prior to the commencement of the internship
Assignment 2 30% After first 6 weeks of internship work
Assignment 3 50% First day of exam period unless otherwise approved

The methodologies that will be utilised are dependent upon the type of internship and the agreed form of assessment (principally, a Program outline, a Reflective summary and portfolio, and a Program report).  Students will be guided in their use of methodologies by a Faculty mentor and will have access to academic staff from relevant disciplines as required. 

Students are advised to keep a private journal (diary) during their internship. 

Notes on presentation standard for Final Report

Whilst no presentation format is prescribed for Program Reports this is a professional unit and consequently students are expected to present their work in a style commensurate with the professional standards that apply in their relevant discipline area.

Consequently original thought, content, structure, citation and quality of presentation will be taken into account during marking.

Submission requirements for Reports

Students are reminded that the program outline, Reflective summary, and the Program Report are required to be submitted in both hard copy (for marking) and electronic copy (as back-up).
