Health Professional Programs
WIL is an essential component of UNSW’s Health Professional Programs, with WIL opportunities integrated into the following programs:
International Public Health & Population Health
The School of Population Health offers undergraduate students an exciting WIL opportunity through the Public Health Capstone(PHCM3003). This course provides students with an opportunity to consolidate and integrate their knowledge and skills of public health research and practice and apply them to a particular public health issue.
The school also offers another rewarding WIL course, PHCM9143 Internship, to postgraduate students. It allows students to gain real-world experience in a relevant health service or public health organisation in Australia or overseas.
Health Data Science
Master of Science in Health Data Science students can complete a research dissertation project (combination of HDAT9900/9901/9902 ), which allows them to apply skills to a relevant health data problem in a real-world environment.
