University of Tasmania - Hobart
The Bachelor of Arts with Honours is a specialised one year course that enables you to deepen your knowledge and research skills in a particular field of Humanities, Social Sciences, Creative Arts and Media, or the study of Geography and Environment.
You will apply advanced theory and research methods to social and cultural issues of local and global significance to become an independent, critical and reflective thinker. Working closely with an academic supervisor, you will develop valuable skills in designing and managing independent projects in your area of interest and, by the end of the course, you will be equipped with advanced research, analytical and communication skills that will prepare you for entry to higher degree research, such as a Master of Arts or PhD, or other professional careers.
In Australia and around the world, employers are increasingly seeing graduates who can speak and write clearly; who are computer literate and understand how to use technology; who know about other countries, cultures and societies; who can solve problems creatively; and who have developed that flexibility of thought which technical and vocational training rarely encourages.
Graduates with a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) degree find jobs in, for example: advertising, journalism, radio and television; arts administration, heritage and curatorial positions; diplomacy, interpreting and tourism; management, marketing and administration; politics, the public service, the police force and the armed forces; research and publishing; social welfare and community work, or go onto academic careers.
If you successfully complete this course, you may be also be eligible to apply for a range of other postgraduate courses including Graduate Certificates and Graduate Diplomas and Masters by coursework and research. Filter the course list by Postgraduate to view the current courses available.
The ATAR and Selection Rank profile is not available as entry is based on other criteria for this course.
