Program overview

A four year arts degree allowing students to build a programme across multiple disciplines rather than a single major, combining humanities, social sciences and other areas with the writing and analytical training arts degrees develop.

This is a full degree awarded here rather than a transfer route, which is its main practical advantage: it completes locally and carries degree level work permit standing. The multidisciplinary structure suits students who want breadth or a specific combination that no single major offers, and it carries September, January and May intakes.
