Mental health matters – your first year in a graduate program can be stressful. Here are tips on how to manage and where to get help.
Coping with stress
- Time management –
keep a list of tasks you aim to complete each day. This will help you break a sometimes overwhelming workload into manageable goals and gauge what you can realistically achieve.
- Preparation –
whether you are scheduled to attend a meeting with a client or present to your team, make sure you give yourself enough time to prepare adequately so that you can perform at your best.
- Focus on solutions –
accept that as a graduate, you will make mistakes. Ask your manager or team for advice on how to avoid repeating them.
- Maintain a balanced lifestyle –
to perform at your best, it’s important to look after your physical and mental health. This means eating well, exercising regularly, taking time out, reducing alcohol intake, being social and keeping a healthy sleep schedule.
A healthy level of stress can keep you motivated and may even be a proportionate and manageable response to your new responsibilities. However, in an intense working environment, it is not uncommon for stress levels to rise.

Why should you apply for an internship?
An internship is an opportunity to understand the role, tasks and industry. Plus it's a chance to learn new tools and build your portfolio of knowledge. Internships want you to leave knowing more than you came with.
If you are looking for an internship to do as a part of your UniSA course, it is important that you check with your course coordinator when choosing an internship or activity, to ensure it is approved as a part of your program
