What Happens Next?+

Our program is competitive; there are always more applications than roles. Your application will be considered for its quality and suitability to available roles. We take into account your CV, answers to application questions, areas of interest and identified skills.

Please check your student email regularly; this is how we will contact you if we have any questions. After the closing date of applications, you will be asked to confirm that you still wish to be considered.

Applicants are then matched to roles based on their interests and skills and the specific requirements of the available roles. When selecting and matching, preferences will usually, but not always, be given to:

• Applications ranked highly;

• Applications that indicate a ‘for credit’ unit option;

• Applicants who have not undertaken an Internship with the centre before; and

• Applicants who are enrolled in the Active Citizenship Minor.

These criteria cannot be strictly observed because the Internships Coordinator needs to consider best suitability to available roles based on the applicant’s course of study, preferences indicated in the application, and other skills identified by the applicant.

By the outcome date (listed in Dates and Deadlines) you will be notified of the outcome of your application. If successfully matched to an internship role, you will receive further instructions about enrolment. If your application is unsuccessful, you are strongly encouraged to try again in a future round.

Many internships incur small incidental costs, like any university unit. These are minimal and, in most cases, less than the cost of text books. For example, you may be required to obtain a Police Clearance, Working with Children Check, or a sector-specific screening check. You will also need to factor in transport costs (i.e. fuel or public transport).

The Raine Study — Semester 2 (July – October)

The Raine Study is a long-term cohort study that began in 1989, aiming to understand the impact of early life events on later health outcomes. Over 30+ years, extensive data has been collected across 17 follow-ups, covering developmental origins, vision, cardiometabolic health, respiratory conditions, allergies, musculoskeletal disorders, hormonal changes, lifestyle behaviors, and more. To enhance accessibility and usability for researchers, a centralized database system is being developed to harmonize and validate all collected data. One major effort involves ensuring consistency in occupation data across follow-ups by assigning Australian Standard Classification of Occupations (ASCO) codes. Working with the Raine Study Data team, you will be responsible for assigning Australian Standard Classification of Occupations (ASCO) Codes to the Raine Study participants who have completed survey data at different time points. While ASCO coding has been completed for follow-ups from Year 1 to Year 22, assistance is needed to complete coding for Years 27 and 28. This will be a combination of manual cleaning as well as scripting to automate the process. You should possess strong coding and scripting expertise, with proficiency in Python or comparable programming languages. If time allows, the intern should aim to convert the assigned ASCO codes into a graphical representation.
