About the BIS

The HR Business Internship Scheme (BIS) is an initiative of Deakin University’s Human Resources Services Division (HRSD). The aim of the scheme is to provide final year Deakin students with the opportunity to gain hands on industry experience within an actual HR working environment.

The internship consists of:

12 week placement of 100 hours in total
Work on a major research project
Participate in a range of operational HR responsibilities
Actively participate as part of the HRSD 'team'
A formal buddy system to help with the transition into the workforce
Opportunity for career planning training
'Catch up days' with other interns
Gain experience in an actual HR environment within a specific discipline of HR
Earn one credit point towards your studies - enrol in either MMI301/MMI302

The BIS is open to final year undergraduate students who are completing studies which they believe could be enhanced by undertaking an Internship in HRSD. Successful applicants must be concurrently enrolled in the Business Internship Program MMI301/MMI302 in the Faculty of Business and Law.
