About the course

You’ll begin with core communication units such as understanding media industries, analysing audiences and understanding the internet and data. That will then extend into analyses of specific media and communication industries, such as pop culture, digital platforms and analytics. Your studies will help you develop a wide skillset tailored to helping you succeed, no matter how the media and communications sector evolves.  Your studies will be rounded by the choice of either a second major, which is a sequence of eight units from another study area, or minors and electives such as work integrated learning, internships or international study tours that allow you to graduate work ready through engagement with the industry. 

How to apply for the Bachelor of Communication 

Entry for all four communication majors goes through one QTAC code. Once in your degree, you'll be able to choose your first major (from either digital advertising, community and public relations, journalism, or media and communication industries) and round out your studies by selecting ether:
  • a second major (either one of the alternative communication first major options, or any available second major option from across the university) OR
  • complementary studies tailored for you, such a Work Integrated Learning internship allowing you to gain real-world work experience as part of your degree.
