COURSE DESCRIPTION

Sociology uses rigorous research to question and critique our social interactions. In our hyper connected world, social reasoning is vital for media professionals. You’ll be uniquely skilled at providing informed commentary through media channels.

Advanced communication and critical thinking skills will also be highly valuable in a range of government, business and community service roles.

What will you do?

Identify societal trends and power structures.
Debate and problem-solve around social issues in the media.
Build skills in digital and interactive media, writing, research, reporting, storytelling, radio and video production.
Get industry experience with major media networks and outlets.

Industry Placement

All Bachelor of Media students have the opportunity to take part in a media industry placement through the elective course Media Industry Transitions. This path is highly recommended for those who wish to enter the industry directly after completion of their undergraduate degree.

The placement allows students to gain meaningful work experience by contributing toward a host organisation project. Students are given the opportunity to negotiate their own placements with organisations of their choice, after discussion with the Convenor of Media Industry Transitions. The student needs to ensure that their industry placement does not clash with their other courses.
