The Bachelor of Arts course at ECU enables you to pursue your passion and career goals simultaneously. You will have a unique opportunity to design a cross-disciplinary course according to your personal interests, perhaps in creative writing from the perspective of a deep commitment to ecological issues, or a future in political journalism, underpinned by expertise in a second language such as Japanese. The course structure enables you to combine Arts subjects with either another Major from any University discipline or a series of electives, from the sciences to business, law and psychology. We also encourage work-related placement. To help you create exactly the undergraduate experience you want for your anticipated professional life, we provide ongoing, professional support throughout your undergraduate course. |

RECOMMENDED TRANSDISCIPLINE ELECTIVES
Students who elect to take any of the units below will attend seminars in the first half of semester, focus on theoretical and thematic ideas (the curriculum), learning to process theoretical articles through précis- and essay-writing. Students then will devise a negotiated project, to be completed independently in the second half of the semester, marked by the appropriate academics. Flexible assessment for learning means that students might work within across disciplines, that is, either with a traditional discipline-based project, across disciplines, or even in collaboration with other students in a single discipline or transdisciplinally.
