Townsville, Cairns

The Bachelor of Arts degree provides students with an opportunity to complete a coherent course of study specialising in at least one area of knowledge. They are also able to combine study in several areas to obtain unique combinations of skills and background knowledge for maximum flexibility in preparation for the workforce. Students may complete a major in a single discipline, in two disciplines (a double major) or general course of study.

The structure of the degree ensures that graduates of the Bachelor of Arts have skills in oral and written communication. They are skilled researchers able to seek out information, critically analyse and evaluate evidence and plan solutions to problems in a logical and organised manner. They are able to use modern information technologies and to manage numerical information in a manner appropriate to their area of specialisation. They have a sound understanding of cultural diversity, an awareness of Indigenous Australian cultures and training in ethical conduct in at least one field of study.

MAJORS IN THE BACHELOR OF ARTS DEGREE

Graduation with a Bachelor of Arts degree requires the completion of 72 units of academic credit which can be achieved by a full-time student in three years or over a longer period for part-time students. Units of credit are accrued through the completion of subjects with each subject being valued at a specified number of units. Most subjects are worth 3 units of academic credit but some at level 2 and 3 are worth 3 or 6 units or more. The unit value of a subject indicates the work load it requires of the student: the higher the unit value, the greater the workload. Students enrolled full-time normally complete 4 subjects per semester or 12 units of academic credit.

Students should select a major in the Bachelor of Arts. A major requires completion of 27 units of academic credit in a specified field. A typical sequence of study to complete a major involves completing

Students may complete more than 27 units of academic credit in their selected major, if they wish. A minimum of 12 units of study at level 3 must be completed in approved subjects for the major. No more than 18 units of study may be selected from subjects in tables other than Table 1a of the Master Schedule of Subjects.

Trained policy analysts are also well suited for coordinating the contributions of specialised technicians into coherent and effective policy alternatives. Finally, individuals with professionally-oriented training in policy analysis and public management are ideally equipped to implement successful cost-effective programs.
