- Abstract
- Gaining hands-on experience throughout an under graduate degree is regarded as a competitive advantage by science students. At the Gippsland campus of Monash University, the Industry Placement Program (IPP) allows students to gain industry experience throughout their entire course. Science students enrolled in the IPP undertake a practicum learning experience, equivalent to a 12-point unit, whose emphasis is on identifying and building transferable skills while gaining technical competency. The combination of academic studies, relevant paid work experience and professional development training produces capable, work-ready graduates
