Marketing Internship Program

Both students and industry derive significant benefits from the Marketing Internship Program. Final year, final semester students in Business or Commerce can elect to undertake this program as part of their degree.

How it works

Students negotiate their own internship projects to the satisfaction of both parties, usually with organisations they would like to work for. Faced with some critical self evaluation of their talents and capabilities, students are delighted to take on challenging projects where they can prove what they are made of. The personal growth students go through is amazing – an outcome of their new experience with business in general and their host organisation in particular. Organisations of all sizes, of all descriptions, think the process is remarkable. From federal to local government, from large retailers to shopping centres, from specialist technology companies to major motor vehicle manufacturers, from banks to charities, the number of satisfied stakeholders involved in the program is quite extraordinary.

More Testimonials

"The whole marketing internship program was great – I learnt a great deal in a short period of time. I researched my areas of interest, identified my options in terms of a future career and developed skills in applying for jobs. Seeing how marketing is implemented in large organisations and how relationships within organisations work was a fascinating and memorable experience. The major benefits for me included exposure to a wide range of all aspects of contemporary marketing, and gaining experience in how theory can be applied in the workplace. I would recommend the program to any and every student, for growth and personal development. It also looks great on my resume, impressing potential employers."

The value for ANZ is having a young creative mind look at different ways to connect to our diverse markets. Over the years that we have been participating in the Marketing Internship program, final year students from Monash’s Business and Commerce degrees have challenged our thinking and provided insight into our marketing approach. We are impressed by the calibre of students; we have made offers to the best of the best; and look forward to continued relationships with Monash University into the future."

Catherine Hirt

"My Internship with the Public Relations Department at UBS Singapore was an amazing experience that provided me with an invaluable insight into the world of corporate public relations. The hands on experience equipped me with new skills and provided me with the opportunity to fully utilise what I have learnt at Monash University."

Catherine Hirt, Bachelor of Business & Commerce, Berwick
Completed an internship with the UBS, Singapore in 2008

"We had the benefit of Catherine Hirt as an intern in UBS Singapore’s Corporate Communications department in January 2008 as part of her Monash Marketing Internship program. It was certainly a challenging although exciting time for the banking industry during that period and we certainly benefited from having a very capable intern like Catherine assisting us during that time. She came into the role well prepared and professional, and was able to contribute from the first day. This speaks very well for Monash in their preparation of their undergraduates for their internship program and eventually for working life."
