悉尼大學(xué)

Whether you want to learn a new language or study a new culture, explore great books, ideas or minds, discover the past, analyse the present or consider the shape of the world's future, the Bachelor of Arts will expand your horizons and challenge you to think outside the box.

Offering broad choice across more than 45 subject areas in the humanities and social sciences, no two arts degrees are quite the same. You will study a major and a minor, choosing both from our broad choice across the humanities and social sciences, or selecting your minor from the University's shared pool.

Whatever your focus, when you undertake our Bachelor of Arts degree you will be guided by the expertise of an internationally respected group of educators. With arts and humanities at the University of Sydney consistently recognised as among the top 20 faculties globally in academic rankings, our Bachelor of Arts degree is both highly regarded and well supported by research leaders.

In the Media Studies major you gain an education in the history and theory of media production and communications, and receive professional training in print, online and broadcast industries.

Core units of study focus on media production, the structure of the media and communications industries, the media's role in culture and politics, globalisation, and legal and ethical issues in the field. You will explore these areas through a diverse array of disciplinary perspectives and relevant critical theories and develop professional skills in the fields of print, audio, video, online media and public relations.

Media Studies equips students with multi-platform skills for entry into areas such as print, broadcast and online journalism (and the convergence of these areas), international communications, media regulation and public policy, media and public relations and corporate communications.
