The industry minor provides an opportunity to work independently and collaboratively to develop the ethical, critical thinking and communication and teamwork skills required to understand, analyse and conduct health and human services projects.
Selection into the Research Honours minor is competitive, as there are a limited number of research projects available each year.
In order to be considered for selection into the research minor students must achieve a minimum 70 WAM across second year subjects. Students will be contacted by the School of Allied Health, Human Services and Sport if they meet eligibility requirements for the research minor.
Compulsory placements (Work Based Learning)
During this course, you will participate in one or more supervised Work Based Learning (WBL) placements designed to allow you to practice newly acquired skills, behaviours and knowledge while integrating theory with practice. The placements will immerse you in professional work culture, enabling you to develop and further enhance your skills. WBL provides you with the opportunity to gain valuable industry experience at one or more of our local, interstate or international industry partners or agencies. WBL placements will generally be arranged by the Office of the Provost Placements and WBL Team at La Trobe University. The number of hours undertaken can vary considerably, depending on the requirements of the course. Students may incur additional costs and it may be necessary to travel or relocate to complete a specific placement. Please refer to the individual subject entries for more information.
