Why choose this course
Communication is at the centre of how organisations, industries and communities connect, inform and influence. As digital platforms, data and artificial intelligence continue to transform communication, employers are seeking graduates who can think strategically, understand audiences and create meaningful communication across rapidly evolving media environments.
By combining undergraduate and postgraduate study, you will graduate with advanced knowledge and capabilities that set you apart in an increasingly competitive communication industry.
You will gain broad foundations from the Bachelor of Communication and advanced capabilities from the Master of Digital Communication. You will develop strong communication skills, learn how media and audiences are changing, and build expertise in the digital platforms and technologies shaping contemporary communication.
This vertical double degree offers a distinctive pathway for high achieving students who want to progress quickly into strategic and leadership focused roles, with the benefit of completion in a shorter time than studying them separately.
What you'll study
Your studies begin with core communication units that develop your understanding of communication, media industries, audiences, digital technologies and contemporary communication practice. These foundations are complemented by your choice of communication major.
As you progress through the course, you will develop specialised knowledge through your chosen major while continuing to strengthen your communication, critical thinking and analytical capabilities.
Advanced studies in the Master of Digital Communication focus on the future of digital communication. You will explore social media storytelling, communication analytics, artificial intelligence, data visualisation and the digital creative economy. You will examine how digital platforms are transforming communication production, distribution and audience engagement, and develop the advanced research, analytical and professional capabilities required for complex communication environments.
Your studies culminate in advanced project and research work that integrates and applies the knowledge and skills developed throughout the course, preparing you for professional practice in a rapidly changing digital world.
