Ever wondered what it's actually like inside VIS Performance Science?

Your day could see you working alongside VIS Performance Scientists, capturing and analysing how athletes move, and picking up experience most people don't get until years into a career.

The VIS Mentorship Program – Performance Science is for current Exercise and Sport Science students, graduates or postgrads, around 10 hours a week, with fortnightly workshops that open the door to the whole VIS, from Physical Preparation to Nutrition to Medical. Movement Science, Performance Analysis or Physiology, there's a stream to match your interest.

Applications close Sunday 4 October. Learn more & apply via the VIS careers page.
