Work Integrated Learning

ACPIR offers Work Integrated Learning (WIL) opportunities (placements / internships / work experience) to undergraduate and postgraduate students to work with projects in various fields, such as: 

  • Biomedical Science
  • Agriculture
  • Horticulture
  • Agribusiness and agritourism
  • Dietetics 
  • Nutrition
  • Environmental Health
  • Marine and coastal ecology
  • Climate change adaptation
  • Social Sciences  - peoples and cultures
  • International / community development

Further, all our projects have aspects of stakeholder engagement, monitoring and evaluation, data processing and analysis, literature review, administration – no matter what discipline area. The common denominator is a focus on the Pacific Islands.

We tailor a placement to fit the student’s interests, with a view to engender and nurture in the students an interest in and understanding of the research world and, of course, the Pacific Islands.
