The Monash Industry Team Initiative (MITI) is the University’s leading industry engagement program offering students from ALL faculties an invaluable opportunity to gain professional experience in a unique learning environment.

This team based initiative embeds students with leading Australian and global industry partners for 12 weeks over the summer where they are tasked with solving real-world business problems. Placed in a contemporary business environment the experience exposes students to a practical and very different way of learning.

This year students may only apply to a maximum of five projects, so it is imperative that students consider very carefully where their interests and skill sets are best suited. This is the first release of MITI projects. We will continue to post projects to the website as the weeks progress.

Eligibility to apply to the MITI Program:

Please note: Scope for MITI projects are determined by the industry partners, this includes student disciplines and whether they require students at undergraduate, Masters or PhD level.

Applications for the MITI program are welcome from penultimate and subsequent year undergraduates, Masters and PhD students who meet the following criteria:
