Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cadetships - the 'Uni to Work' Program

Attention: Employers!

By employing a Cadet engaged in a relevant undergraduate area of study, employers can resource a four to five week project, or longer term position through a 12 or 24 week internship. Internships are an economical way to trial a student or recent graduate and can lead to ongoing employment.

At the same time, placements in industry, government and community organisations give Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander UWS students the opportunity to gain paid, degree-relevant industry experience. This is a great way for students and recent graduates to boost their resume, make valuable contacts and gain a competitive edge in the job market.

Attention: UWS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Undergraduates and Postgraduates!

The Office of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Employment and Engagement is now gauging your interest in undertaking a Cadetship or Vocational Employment opportunity with UWS, Industry or Government.

Work placements for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cadets and interns in most cases run for a period of 12 weeks. Work can be performed during summer break or throughout the year over the period of your study, depending on the individual arrangements made with each host organisation. UWS in partnership with leading organisations will work together to help kick start your career. What a great incentive to earn an income whilst studying for the duration of your course!
