Innovation Central Perth’s internship program has connected a myriad of students to industry. Our proven program enables students to apply their knowledge outside of the classroom environment, whilst providing them with hands-on practical experience.
The following video showcases a handful of our intern success stories. Watch the video to hear from some past ICP interns on how their experience with ICP assisted them in landing a full-time role within their respective industries.

ACTIVITIES
ICP 2021-22 Summer Intern Program
To mark the end of the 2021-22 Innovation Central Perth Summer Intern Program, we held an end of program sundowner for our cohort of students to come together and celebrate the end of their internships.
This round, we had 30 student-led projects all investigating various solutions for ICP’s industry members focussed on machine learning, data science, cloud computing, embedded systems, API development, electrical engineering, IoT technology and more.
During this session, a handful of students presented on their projects, capturing the initial business challenge, their approach to developing a solution, the outcome of the internship, and lastly, the future direction of the project. Faculty of Science and Engineering students, Corinne Dale, Thomas Bell, Yatin Patel, and Digby Emmett, all presented on their industry projects for Alcoa, Olinqua, and TADWA.
A big thank you to all of the student interns that came along to share with your fellow peers the solutions each of you have been busy working on over the summer. We commend each of your efforts and are consistently blown away by the calibre your work!
