Practical experience

Christjan completed a 10-week internship with the North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency in 2020.

'I cannot speak highly enough of the experience. It has left a strong impression [and] opened my eyes to the interconnectedness of criminal justice issues with civil law and access to justice issues.'

Christjan Corias, Bachelor of Justice/ Bachelor of Laws (Honours)

Graduate with experience

I chose QUT because the practical placement was incredibly attractive to me.

One of my placements was with Queensland Corrective Services. I was able to participate in programs for convicted sexual offenders and drug offenders to reintegrate them into society.

Rejen Cabili-Hayes, Bachelor of Justice and Human Services

Placements in the real world

When I did my placement with the Queensland Police Service’s State Intelligence Group, I was the first student they have ever taken on, which is a testament to the reputation QUT has with real-world organisations.
