Unpaid Internships

Occasionally, ChemCentre will offer unpaid internships. Internships offer TAFE and university students studying chemistry (or related course) in Australia or internationally the opportunity to gain valuable practical laboratory experience and learn more about the Chemistry workforce.

The availability of internships varies each year, depending on current projects and the laboratory's capacity for interns.

ChemCentre has established relationships with TAFE colleges and tertiary institutions for accessing students for internships.

Work Experience for Secondary Students

Unfortunately, ChemCentre is unable to offer work experience opportunities to high school students.
