Launch a career

Monash students constantly challenge the status quo and push boundaries. Through our various industry initiatives, you’ll gain access to a dynamic talent pool who are already thinking about changing the world. You will help them grow into work-ready graduates by providing real world opportunities. There are lots of ways to get involved:

Global Discovery Program – study tour

Facilitate an immersive international study tour giving students exclusive access to your influential global networks.

“We can expose students to real life business scenarios in the workforce via people actually living it.”
Karl Redenback (BA 1999, LLB 2000)
CEO and Co-Founder, LiveTiles and Monash Global Leaders’ Group member.

Supported and hosted by the local Global Leaders’ Group in one of our eight priority locations, a select group of up to eight students are chosen through a competitive process to participate in this intensive eight-day program. The hosting Global Leaders’ Group, together with their wider alumni network, create a bespoke program for students that includes workplace meetings, experiences and introductions to leading alumni and their organisations.

To be considered, students must develop a 30 second video. Monash manages the application and selection process as well as the administration for the program.

The Global Discovery Program is a life changing opportunity for Monash students selected to participate. The Global Leaders’ involved in the program have the opportunity to interact with some of the best and brightest Monash minds.

Your opportunity to give

The program is alumni funded through philanthropy and corporate sponsorship. Monash provides each student with travel insurance and a stipend through the Travel Abroad Scholarship. Each Global Discovery Program gives you the opportunity to:

Develop an inspiring itinerary that includes meetings with supporting alumni
Interact with the next generation of leaders
Access some of the best and brightest minds Monash has to offer
Extend personal and business networks with alumni in the hosting location

Monash can tailor a sponsorship package to suit you and your organisation and will provide exposure through:

Social media throughout the program
The Global Discovery Program website
Print materials used to promote the program
Video promotion both pre and post program

Internships (Work Integrated Learning)

Provide Monash students with invaluable work experience and gain access to a dynamic talent pool who are already thinking about changing the world.

“The help a mentor can give a student might seem small at the time, but means much more to them. It’s amazing to look retrospectively at where they started in their professional development and realise how quickly they develop and learn. A bit of time out of your day will mean a world of difference to a student.”
NICK SWAN (BBusCom/BComn 2014)
Marketing Executive, Methven Australia

Some Monash students complete a work placement as part of their course. You can partner with Monash and host talented students for work integrated learning projects in the workplace. We'll provide insurance for the student and can help you design the internship project or placement. For international placements Monash provides the student with visa assistance. To participate, you’re required to have public indemnity insurance, a supervisor for the intern and a safe place to work. Internships range in duration, but typically take place between 20-60 working days.

Your opportunity to grow

Hosting a student in your workplace or involving them in an off-site project can provide your organisation with:

New project development ideas and perspectives
Savings on recruitment costs
Staff development opportunities for employees to mentor students
Networking opportunities with Monash faculties
Access to skills

We support internships in Australia and around the world. Monash will carefully match an intern to your requirements and you can interview and select the right intern for your organisation. We have placed Monash University interns successfully in a wide range of industries including:
