BUSINESS 3002 - Deloitte Internship

North Terrace Campus - Semester 2 - 2023

The Deloitte Internship course includes an Internship with Deloitte. All students who are selected to join The Academy by Deloitte will be offered an internship. This provides the student with an opportunity to experience a hands-on business environment in which to observe and apply their knowledge and skills from their degree. Students will be assigned a team, based on their discipline of study and their interests, and will undertake an internship role which will give them experience in consultancy services. Students will gain a wide range of experience including working on projects, client engagements and will be involved in observations, meetings, and coordination, to gain a clearer insight into the day-to-day functioning of Deloitte. Students must complete the course to the satisfaction of Deloitte as well as an academic supervisor to be eligible to pass this course.

Were the conditions similar or different? What knowledge and skills were required to deal with these experiences? Did you identify areas for personal development?
    Reasoning: What important factors underlying incidents/issues can you identify? How are these factors important when understanding events? How is your reasoning supported by theory/literature? What other perspectives should be considered? Are ethics involved? How might a more experienced person handle this?
    Reconstructing: Project yourself into the future; how would you deal with some of the issues/incidents you observed? Is there more than one option? Are your ideas supported by theory? How do you think your actions would be received?

  • 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.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • 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.
