External employment opportunities
Four Indigenous students are sitting and engaging in casual conversation.

External employment and scholarship programs are normally funded and supported by the relevant employer, such as governments and industry groups. These programs may include graduate cadetships/scholarships provided by the employer where graduate students are funded a scholarship to maintain their studies and to work within the sponsoring industry during semester breaks and be paid a salary for this extra work.

Jumbunna Institute of Indigenous Education and Research arranges presentations with industry organisations regarding graduate programs and scholarships.
