General Course Information
Course Details
Course Code ARTS 3203 Course Arts Internship Coordinating Unit Arts Faculty Office Term Semester 1 Level Undergraduate Location/s North Terrace Campus Units 3 Contact Up to 2 hours of seminars per fortnight plus work placement in host organisation Available for Study Abroad and Exchange N Prerequisites At least 48 units of undergraduate study Incompatible ARTS 3200, ARTS 2001, ARTS 3001 Course Description This 3-unit course provides flexibility for students for whom a six-unit one-semester project is not suitable. With the aim of helping students better equip themselves for the workplace students are given the opportunity as 'interns' working within specified areas in the private or public sector in South Australia, while completing an agreed research report for their host organisation. Placements are supplemented with a series of seminars on research and report writing as well as on topics related to career readiness. Students will be allocated placements that relate to their key area of study from among a range of work placements which include public service departments, local government, statutory authorities and other non-government organisations as well as a range of private industries. Final placement will depend upon availability of a host organisation (arranged by the student or from a list of organisations which the Faculty has organised) and assessment of a formal application taking into consideration academic merit (a minimum credit average GPA). Students will be assigned an academic supervisor to supervise and mark their research project. This course provides a way for students to enhance their research and research writing skills, get some experience in the workplace and is an excellent preparation for Honours and postgraduate study.

Student Feedback
The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness
Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student’s disciplinary procedures.
The University of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The University of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
