Since 2001, La Trobe University students have had the unique opportunity to gain valuable industry career experiences by being involved with the Energy Breakthrough.

Volunteering with the Energy Breakthrough in Maryborough, Victoria is a fantastic way for La Trobe students to develop real-life skills and build their network of industry professionals while inspiring future generations about their own career possibilities. You might even be lucky enough to score credit points for your University coursework, too. (Check with your lecturer on this).

All La Trobe University students who volunteer at the Energy Breakthrough will go in the draw to win one of ten (10) tickets to see the National Gallery of Victoria’s new KAWS exhibition on until 13 April 2020 (Learn more >).
