A community is a social group whose members live in a specific location, share government and often have a common cultural and historical heritage. Communities have many cultural groups that share behaviours, beliefs, values and symbols that they accept and pass on from one generation to the next.

Communities and different cultures survive in many environments which provide conditions for development and growth as well as danger and damage. When you study communities, different cultures and their environments, you explore the diverse issues that affect these different groups of people and their surroundings.

What you will study

Core subjects are diverse and will teach you about indigenous peoples and the environment, Australian cultures and identities, post-federation Australian literature, children and young adult fictional literature, environmental contexts and current issues and problems and change in the human environment.

In addition to the Community, Culture and Environment major you will choose a minor or a second major from the Bachelor of Arts offerings.

Completion of full majors at regional campuses is subject to availability at time of enrolment.
