At present, the Bachelor of Tourism has no formal requirement for students to undertake internships within the degree.  However, CQUniversity will be offering a number of opportunities for students to undertake quality internships if they wish to with key industry partners.  These internships will be competitive and students will need to apply.

In addition, each tourism course (TOUR course code) will integrate Work Integrated Learning into the course through using industry relevant case studies and utilising industry speakers within each course.  Some courses will also utilise field trips and industry visits where possible.

CQUniversity and Sunshine Coast Institute of TAFE (SCIT) have established a partnership to collaborate in the delivery of the Bachelor of Tourism at SCIT's Noosa campus.  This arrangement will enable graduates of the SCIT Diploma of Tourism and Diploma of Events to articulate directly into University studies.

Diploma graduates can transition directly from SCIT into the second year of the CQUniversity Bachelor of Tourism program.  

Students can apply for entry into the program via the ‘Application for Admission - Undergraduate Direct Entry' form located at http://my.cqu.edu.au/documents/10165/2244410/Undergraduate+Direct+Application+form.

Credit transfer will only be granted where a student is able to demonstrate that tertiary studies equivalent in content and depth to a Bachelor of Tourism course has been completed. Students should examine the course synopses in this handbook to determine the courses from which they may be eligible to claim exemption. Refer to the Credit Transfer website at http://www.cqu.edu.au/credittransfer for further details.
