Fall Semester: August 26th to December 10th, 2009 The Sydney Internship Program offers a semester of study and work in beautiful, cosmopolitan Sydney, Australia, one of the hubs of the Pacific Rim. This program combines a professional internship with coursework on Australia’s dynamic history, contemporary culture, and place in the modern world, including its literature, film, mass media, politics, economy, and art. Courses are taught at the Boston University Sydney Center by faculty drawn from leading Australian universities and industries. Upon successful completion of a semester, students earn 16 Boston University credits. |

The First
Six Weeks (Core Phase)
Students take two courses during the first session: Australian Culture and Society (required course; all students must conduct ethnographic research on an aspect of Australian society) and an Australian-focused elective course. During this time students also meet with their appointed internship advisors to refine an area of placement according to ability, relevant academic history, professional goals, and experience.
The Final
Eight Weeks (Placement Phase)
Students take one Australian-focused elective course while also participating in an internship placement. There is a required academic component of the internship placement, and a minimum of two required formal internship advisor meetings scheduled during this session. Attendance at academic forums is also required.
