Visiting Research Practicum
The Visiting Research Practicum Program is designed for both undergraduate and post-graduate students who are currently enrolled full-time at an overseas university who wish to obtain research experience or professional or industrial practice with a UOW research team.
This professional practicum is for a limited period (usually up to 12 months) and must be a formal requirement for the award of a degree at the student’s home university.
Securing a UOW academic supervisor is the responsibility of the applicant. Participants must contact the relevant UOW Academic Unit or Research Unit and negotiate with a member of staff to supervise their project. Applications will not be accepted until a UOW supervisor has been confirmed.
Participants who are accepted to the Visiting Research Practicum Program will enrol at the University of Wollongong. Although participants will be enrolled while conducting their research, they are not eligible to receive a UOW Academic Transcript. Proof of research conducted at UOW will be evident in the research results and written references from project supervisors.
Participants will be required to enter Australia with a Non-Award Student Visa. Information about this visa and the application process can be located by going to the following website.
