Choosing a career path as an undergraduate can be challenging. While you may have an interest in a particular area, you sometimes don't know which path to follow until you've had some practical work experience.

In our internship programme, you will be placed in a technical field of your choice (where possible) for approximately three months to gain experience in that field and help you decide if it is right for you.

Aurecon's internship programme coincides with the university summer break. At the end of the experience, we give our internship students structured feedback on their performance to assist in their professional development.

While open to all students, the programme has been designed for undergraduates ideally in their penultimate year of study.

Who are we

Aurecon is more than an engineering, design and advisory company.

The Australian Financial Review (AFR) named us Australasia's Most Innovative Company and Most Innovative Professional Services Company for 2020. We were also honoured to be the first New Zealand engineering company to achieve The Rainbow Tick certification for diversity and inclusion in 2019. We maintained our accreditation in 2020.

Hardwired in our DNA are engineering, design and the deep need to leave a legacy. We believe humanity depends on engineering; and we recognise we have a broader stewardship role to play. A deep responsibility to hold. As we continually strive for a life in balance, Aurecon clients will be ready for the future and engineered for life.

What makes us unconventional?

The people who design a better future for humanity are the brave new thinkers like you.

We need you to draw upon unconventional ideas and piece together solutions to complex challenges.

From using digital technology to plan and restore safe transport access from Manawatū to Hawkes Bay after major landslips, to advising on innovative infrastructure solutions to support the growth and regeneration of Eastern Porirua. To designing a breakthrough solar-powered water treatment plant that provides drinking water to Indigenous and remote communities across Australia.

Join us and together we'll make an impact that shifts the world.
