Faculty strengths

The faculty has identified the following areas of strength and potential: applied social research and policy studies, Australian studies, critical theory and cultural studies, women's studies and gender research, contemporary Asian studies, environment and ecology, metropolis and region, public history, sociolinguistics, multimedia reference, Aboriginal history and biography.
The faculty is also proposing new interdisciplinary programs such as a Master of Arts in Childhood Studies and a Master of Arts, Graduate Diploma and Faculty Certificate in Cultural Heritage and a Graduate Diploma of Corporate Environmental Management. New double degrees with other faculties are also being planned and proposed; the first of these - to be introduced in 1999 - will be an MBA/MA in Arts Administration.
