Bachelor of Creative Arts/Bachelor of Journalism

You will immerse yourself creatively, critically and practically when you study a double degree in creative arts and communication and media at UOW. This double degree will equip you with the dynamic skills in creative thinking, effective communication and problem-solving skills that are required for high achievement in a range of careers.

You will benefit from teachers who are leaders in their fields as you enjoy a vibrant and progressive approach to learning. You will connect hands-on studio production with critical reflection as you build a strong foundation in the global communication and media industries. Develop a sound knowledge of contemporary arts, art theory and history within Australia and abroad as you reflect on the social, cultural, and ethical issues surrounding the context they operate in.

You will carve out a career of your choice and gain highly competitive skills in a global workplace as you complete practice-based and theory subjects complemented by your creative arts major. Throughout this double degree, you will gain hands-on experience in our state-of-the-art facilities as part of the UOWTV Multimedia student newsroom, and produce coverage for its website, YouTube channel and social media platforms. You will have real deadlines and will engage with community and industry as you explore and innovate within journalism’s changing environment, including podcasting, data journalism and immersive video.
