Bachelor of Arts

Arts graduates are highly sought after by employers because arts degrees ensure you develop strong capabilities in analysis, creativity, research, critical thinking, intercultural awareness and communication – capabilities that are in demand by employers and essential for success in the 21st century workplace. Arts graduates are recognised by employers for their advanced skills in problem solving and their ability to make ethical judgements.

This degree allows you to turn your passion into a career by exploring your interests in depth, and by honing your skills and knowledge through internships, practical application and expert teaching. No other degree at Macquarie offers as much flexibility and as wide a range of units as the Bachelor of Arts.

For international students, Macquarie uses a selection rank to determine the minimum eligibility requirement for each undergraduate course. This rank has been converted into equivalent scores for various recognised international high school qualifications and university entrance examinations, including global qualifications like the International Baccalaureate (IB) and GCE A-Levels.

For more information on how this score is converted for your qualification, please see our academic entry requirements for international students.

Apply early! Remember that places are limited in all programs, especially popular degrees. It is a good idea to apply at least two to three months before Session begins, in order to avoid disappointment, and to give you enough time to organise your student visa.
