Unit Synopsis
Businesses are increasing wanting graduates who are work ready, who can apply their university developed knowledge, skills and attributes to successfully gain, maintain and participate in work and adapt to new contexts. Graduates want to develop knowledge, skills and attributes that enable them to future proof their careers. This unit achieves both of these purposes by providing you with the opportunity to consolidate your knowledge about your chosen profession/discipline through an authentic learning experience at your place of employment. You will undertake a project that will be a supervised project at an advanced level that relates to your discipline area. You will be assigned a supervisor who will guide, advise and mentor you throughout the project. The project will focus on a real issue at your workplace.

Lack of student enrolments is a critical issue.
It is recommended to focus this unit as a term 3 offering to capture students who are not taking studies over the term 3 period. This would also enable students from other universities to engage with the unit. This is a condition of the NCP funding for CQU as a member of the consortium of universities participating in this program.
This unit has now been discontinued. Global Experience options have been transferred to the new unit BUSN13004 Professional practice and experience.
