COURSE DESCRIPTION
Summary
The Bachelor of Media and Communications will equip you with the skills you’ll need to respond to today’s – and tomorrow’s – rapidly evolving media environment.

Innovative in its approach to understanding contemporary social, urban and environmental issues in urban and regional planning, the Bachelor of Planning focuses on recognising the social and cultural diversity of places, and the importance of cross-cultural approaches to research, plan-making and impact assessment. It will not only prepare you for a career in planning in which you have the power to shape more liveable and sustainable futures, but will also give you a distinctive edge among your peers.
