This
double degree course caters for a demand in the information technology industry
for people with both professional computing and professional communication
skills. There is also a demand for graduates with computing expertise in a
range of areas which require professional communication skills, such as
journalism and media related occupations, including multimedia and Internet
applications development and publishing.
Potential employers include mainstream and alternative media organisations and
a wide variety of public and private organisations requiring communication and
information technology knowledge and skills.
The course is directed towards intending students whose career goals are in
line with the above, and who combine ability with high motivation.
Normal
Monash entry requirements of the VCE or an equivalent qualification apply.
Successful applicants will have above average results, with a grade average of
at least C in English, and at least a D in an area of Mathematics. Students who
have completed the first year of the Bachelor of Arts (Communication) or the
Bachelor of Computing with good academic results may be admitted to the second
year of the double degree with full credit for appropriate first-year
studies.
Mature-aged applicants are considered on the basis of their employment history,
educational background and career objectives, and a lack of formal
qualifications should not discourage inquiry.
For information about the structure and content of the course, please refer to the 'Arts' section of this book.
Appropriate credits may be granted for approved studies completed at a recognised post-secondary institution, including other universities, TAFE institutes, and the Open Learning Agency of Australia.
