- Friday, 2 August 2024
10:00 am - 4:00 pm - UTS Rugby Australia Building
You are invited to join us for the world-cafe-style WIL Symposium 2024, featuring top-tier WIL practice showcases, WIL works in progress and a student panel. This year, the symposium will be held at the world-class UTS Moore Park Sports Science facility, where participants will enjoy a special tour and a catered lunch.
Our keynote speaker will be Distinguished Professor in Sport and Exercise Science, Aaron Coutts, Head of the School of Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation. His research is focused on developing evidence-based methods to optimise the training, health and performance of athletes.
Program
This year, we are showcasing examples that increase all students’ access to WIL engagement throughout their programs and beyond. Presenters will briefly pitch to the participants to encourage their interest and will then facilitate a table discussion to groups at intervals for the morning session. We have presenters from all faculties and other university divisions and centres, giving participants a wide variety of options with which to engage.
In the afternoon, we will have a student panel sharing experiences of WIL placements and other opportunities they have had to participate in WIL. This will be followed by our keynote and a Q&A opportunity.
Registration closes 31 July
