Details

Interdisciplinarity is central to creative practice in creative industries. The lines between creative fields are increasingly blurred; visual artists use moving images, performers use digital media in site-specific works, and collaborative teams create sophisticated productions that captivate our senses.

Interdisciplinary study area

These courses provide a unique opportunity to experiment across creative disciplines, and to build a postgraduate qualification that will develop your creative talents or suit your individual career aspirations.

You can enhance your existing practice by choosing units that provide practical skills in a range of areas, including animation, creative or professional writing, event production, interaction design, journalism, music and sound, professional communication or creative advertising.

You will broaden your knowledge of the creative industries, gain an understanding and appreciation of how different creative disciplines relate to one another, and build your ability to work in collaborative teams through project work.
