The Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Information Management double degree requires four years of full-time study.
Arts provides students with the opportunity to broaden their understanding and imagination through the study of a wide variety of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences, as well as subjects offered by other faculties. Information management is designed for students who enjoy working with people and who wish to follow a career as an information management professional in business organisations, government instrumentalities, research bodies and universities.
Graduates will leave university with a broad knowledge of how the information society works, and how to read, write and communicate effectively. They will also gain practical experience in information management and information technology. They will have developed intellectual capabilities and skills necessary to construct, interpret and critique written arguments. Graduates will also be efficient users of communications technology with the skills necessary to use CD-ROM technology and to navigate sophisticated global networks, computer systems and the Internet.
