A Bachelor of Arts degree gives you a better understanding of how human beings make, recognise, and argue about life's meaning and the values that support civilisation. A BA graduate is someone who has gained skills and knowledge, not just in a subject area but also in written communication, critical thinking, and problem solving and can apply these skills in many different jobs, careers and life situations.
The program provides graduates with highly developed skills in written communication, problem-solving, critical thinking and interpersonal understanding. The program offers courses in the core disciplines of humanities and social sciences. Students can choose from a wide range of majors, tailoring the degree to suit their own particular career aspirations.
