Areas of Interest Digital Arts

The Bachelor of Arts degree is the perfect choice if you have broad interests in the humanities, visual arts, languages, archaeology and anthropology, music, or the social sciences. Many degree programs are structured to train students for one job. Most of today’s graduates, however, will change career paths four or five times during their working life. Your Arts degree will give you the necessary flexibility to adapt your knowledge and keep ahead of the changes that all of us face in our careers. It also gives you skills for life – critical analysis, research, written and oral communication – skills that are being increasingly recognised by employers as providing them with their greatest assets – employees who can adapt to and help shape change, who can think laterally, apply knowledge and express themselves clearly.

 

The Bachelor of Digital Arts is available for students who wish to study digital media arts and specialise in areas such as video, animation, digital compositing, sound art, internet art and hybrid digital art. The program includes two semesters of courses drawn from Foundation and Computer Science, followed by practical skills-based project work in digital media, general and specific art theory, and a range of complementary studio programs in the visual arts.

Admission Requirements

Admission to all programs is on a competitive basis, taking into account all relevant academic qualifications. If you hold more than one qualification, admission will be based on your overall record. Tertiary qualifications are generally weighted more heavily than secondary. If you have completed an approved tertiary preparation course or alternative entry scheme, you will be assessed on the results of that scheme alone, unless you have undertaken subsequent study.
