Placement
Placement means working in industry. It gives you the chance to apply your knowledge in real situations – great preparation for being in the workforce.
Co-op placements are usually undertaken from second year. The timing of yours will depend on your course structure and the pre-requisites required. For most courses, you'll need to complete 120 credit points, or 105 credit points plus your Professional Identity unit, before you start your placement. It's okay to complete your placement earlier than it appears in your course structure.
Once you're enrolled in your pre-requisites, we’ll send you a link to the Co-op Placement Portal so you can register a new account (you won't be able to use your standard Federation student ID and password). You should start reviewing placement opportunities on the portal straight away.
You're responsible for finding and applying for placements that are aligned with your area of study and advertised on the Co-op Placement Portal. It's essential to start early so you can lock in your preferred placement.
