School of Culture and Communication

Welcome from the Head of School

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the School of Culture and Communication on behalf of all staff in the School.  One of the largest Schools in the Arts Faculty, we offer undergraduate, honours, coursework and graduate programs. Culture and Communication brings together seven innovative and exciting undergraduate programs: Art History; Australian Indigenous Studies; Cinema and Cultural Studies; Creative Writing; English and Theatre Studies; Media and Communication.  The School is committed to excellence in teaching and learning and to community engagement.  Staff in the School are dedicated researchers who bring a wealth of experience to their teaching, adopting both disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches. Explore the School website to discover more about our courses, research programs, graduate seminars, and cultural events.

We also present employment opportunities with graduate specialisations in areas such as Cultural Management, Publishing and Communication, Art Curatorship and Global Media Communication. Our students have careers in a wide range of professional areas - publishing, writing, museum and gallery work, the arts and media institutions. We are also very proud of our large number of graduate research students who have brought great credit to themselves and the School through their research findings and publications.

The School offers a rich and rewarding set of experiences, and a stimulating and friendly environment where you will explore new ideas, meet people from different backgrounds and cultures, and make lifelong friendships. Our programs reflect the aspirations and interests of our staff who will provide you with the very best education that is designed to equip you to meet the varied and complex demands of everyday life in the twenty-first century.
