UTS Cadetship Program

The UTS Indigenous Cadetship Program provides a bridge for UTS undergraduates to gain employment within the University. This program provides Indigenous students with the opportunity to work in state-of-the-art facilities while participating in paid work experiences as Cadets.

Two Indigenous students are engaging in casual conversation.

Cadet means an Indigenous undergraduate student in their final year of a bachelor degree or entering into an Honours program, and selected on the basis of their potential to progress into graduate studies at Honours level or as a higher degree research candidate.

The cadet will work up to a 0.4 FTE (2 days per week) on a professional or academic contract and will engage in mentoring and tutoring of other undergraduate degree Indigenous students as well as taking on a research activity within Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research or in another UTS Faculty, Academic Unit/Department, as related to and relevant to their area of study.

Applications for the Cadetship Program are reviewed all year round as per funding availability.
Interested students can complete the Expression of Interest form below to register their interest in an academic or professional appointment.
