Life at La Trobe is about more than just studying. We offer professional development opportunities to help our students become more employable, as well as other programs to give them more life experience.

Work Integrated Learning and placements

Our students engage in a range of Work Integrated Learning (WIL) activities that are embedded in the curriculum. These range from industry engagement, such as guest lectures by industry professionals, to career development activities like resume writing and portfolio building.

We also offer students a variety of placement opportunities, both in industry/clinical settings and on-campus in the form of industry projects. This includes elective opportunities available to all students who want to gain work-relevant experience with our industry and community partners.
