About this subject
The subject was previously known as PICX320 Ethics and Security. As the capstone unit for the School of International Studies, PICX3020 partners students with organisations drawn from government, industry, and civil society. Teams of students will work on projects designed both to contribute to the mission of their partner organisation and to give students the opportunity to apply the insights they have developed over the course of their program to a practical problem in their field. Mentors from the partner organisations will provide guidance to the student teams during the unit. Alongside their project work, students will undertake some complementary career development exercises and consider what it means to think and act ethically in their chosen careers. Applications to undertake PICX3020 in Session 2 will open at the start of Session 1 and close at the end of Week 5 in Session 1. To apply for PICX3020 in Session 2, students must meet specific prerequisites to enroll (see pre-requisite section below). Students are responsible for ensuring these requirements are met prior to course registration. Visit Employability Connect for important information on this unit.
