About

Mix and match study areas to create your own path

The highly flexible Bachelor of Arts is a 3-year undergraduate degree. It offers students a pathway into a range of innovative disciplines where you will develop the skills, expertise and professional knowledge to pursue a range of exciting careers.

Majors are available from within the creative and humanities disciplines and beyond, including Culture and Heritage, Global Studies, Creative Writing, Film Production, Digital Media as well as Game Development, Sports Media and more. Combine these specialisations with elective Breadth Majors in areas such as Politics, International Relations, Psychology, Sociology or another area of your choice. A sector-leading suite of units in Indigenous Studies can also be added to your degree.

Students in the Bachelor of Arts secure their foundational skills in writing, critical thinking, critical literacy and expression, while exploring a range of work integrated learning opportunities. The degree has a flexible structure, offering cutting-edge learning in an environment where students are encouraged to explore their interests and pursue the study trajectory that suits them best.

Completion of the Bachelor of Arts with specialist majors in Culture and Heritage, Global Studies, Creative Writing or Digital Media will be specified on the awarded qualification (e.g. Bachelor of Arts (Culture and Heritage), Bachelor of Arts (Global Studies), etc.). All other specialisations will lead to a general Bachelor of Arts.
