Career Possibilities

Many degree programs are structured to train students for one job. Most of today’s graduates, however, will change career paths four or five times during their working life. The career opportunities for Arts graduates are exceptionally varied; from journalism to museum curatorship, publishing to politics, information technology to international development, advertising to art conservation – and much more. Your Arts degree will give you the necessary flexibility to adapt your knowledge and keep ahead of the changes that all of us face in our careers. It also gives you essential workplace skills: critical analysis, research, written and oral communication. These skills are being increasingly recognised by employers as providing them with their greatest assets – employees who can adapt to change, who can think laterally, apply knowledge and express themselves clearly. Your Bachelor of Arts in Policy Studies will give you all these skills, along with a detailed understanding of the important and contested issues in Australian public policy and the social, political, economic and ideological forces that shape policy outcomes.
