CALL FOR STUDENTS TO APPLY
The HIVE Summer
Internship Program provides an opportunity for motivated students to gain
valuable research project experience in visualisation related topics during a
paid summer internship. Interns are supervised by leading researchers and
undertake challenging research projects utilising the high-tech resources
provided by the Curtin HIVE.
Curtin Engineering students will be eligible
to claim the HIVE internship as logbook hours at the industry rate.
We have a list of fantastic proposed internship projects this year. We welcome
scholarship applications from Curtin undergraduate (2nd year and above) and postgraduate students
from all academic areas.
