It is intended that students from this course should graduate with a generalist degree that gives them the ability to work as an educator (e.g. disability guidance, community awareness); a liaison or government officer (e.g. disability secretariat, EEO officer) or a small group manager (e.g. government community development officer, community action group coordinator). Students may also extend their skills with further computer studies and take on a computing career (including multimedia), or transfer to another university course and claim credit for completed study.
