Bachelor of Arts Warts3

The Bachelor of Arts is a highly flexible, new-age degree featuring a choice of six majors, each offering a unique perspective on the world around you and your role in it. You'll learn how to improve your decision-making, generate new ideas, and think critically and creatively.

At a time when some jobs are disappearing, others are evolving and new jobs are emerging, these are the transferable skills that will future proof your career.

CDU's Bachelor of Arts develops both the breadth and depth of your knowledge. It gives you the freedom to focus on your area of interest, while also studying other subjects from a wide range of fields.

At CDU, you'll benefit from a unique focus on Indigenous leadership and the issues and opportunities facing Northern Australia and South-East Asia.

Media Studies, Literature and Creative Writing: Explore how the digital age is changing communication, interaction and the way information is shared. Learn about social media, media ethics, creative and professional writing, and multi-screen communication.

Society and Digital Culture: Learn how philosophy, sociology and Indigenous knowledge traditions influence the way we think about the world and make decisions. You'll explore the social issues facing Northern Australia and Southeast Asia and the cultural drivers that impact change.

Australian Indigenous Knowledges: Gain the skills and knowledge to work with Indigenous cultures and communities in a culturally-competent way. This major focuses on developing the knowledge and skills for meaningful policy-making and implementing change for Australia's Indigenous peoples. You'll learn about the sociological, economic, historical and cultural drivers that impact Australia's Indigenous policy-making and governance.
