Australian Consortium for In-Country Indonesian Studies: Jakarta - Creative Arts and Design Professional Practicum

The ACICIS Creative Arts and Design Professional Practicum (CADPP) exposes students to the vibrancy of contemporary Indonesian arts and cultural production, combining academic elements with hands-on practical creative production experience. This program is supported by the Australian Government's New Colombo Plan Mobility Program.

Running from early January to mid-February each year, the CADPP is a six-week intensive academic and vocational study program in Indonesia for undergraduate and postgraduate Australian and international students. The program includes a two-week intensive Indonesian language study and industry-led seminars at an Indonesian partner university, followed by a four-week supervised industry placement.

The practicum placement will involve students collaborating with Indonesian peers and creative practitioners to produce work including, but not limited to: short films, animations, sound and video art, websites, online installations, blogs and social media apps.

The CADPP is designed for students who have no existing Indonesian language skills. Candidates with existing language skills are also welcome. All industry placements provide an English-language working environment.
