On-campus (Berwick)
This course explores the practical operations of mass communications technologies as well as their social and cultural aspects. The structured nature of the program enables students to specialise in advertising, journalism, multimedia, public relations or tourism, therefore preparing them for specific vocational opportunities.
Arts
sequences offered at Berwick include behavioural studies, Indonesian,
international studies, journalism, psychology and visual culture.
Alternatively, students select a sequence of arts units taught at one of the
other campuses of the university. Students who opt for this alternative should
note that it will involve travelling to another campus to attend lectures, and
close attention will need to be paid to the lecture timetable.
