    Defence Industry Connection Program

    Expressions of interest now open

    South Australian university students and host employers can now express their interest in participating in the South Australian Government’s new Defence Industry Connection Program, which will commence later this year.

    This new program, a $3.9 million South Australian Government investment over four years, will provide eligible students with a scholarship to undertake work placements with a local defence company.

    Students accessing Commonwealth Supported Places and undertaking broader defence and Nuclear Powered Submarine-related tertiary courses, will gain support and internships helping them transition from study into employment in the defence industry.
