BACHELOR OF ART NEW MEDIA ARTS
Introduction - Undergraduate - Honours - Postgraduate
Introduction
The Bachelor of Arts in New Media Arts is designed to prepare graduates for careers in the burgeoning field of digital media arts and performance, media research and practice and teaching within the humanities. What is unique about this offering is the breadth and integrated nature of its offerings: from Interactive Digital Media to Documentary Film; from Directing for the Camera to Scenery Design.
While the degree is based within the discipline of the Humanities, it is founded upon a marriage of the arts with design, application and performance. It also draws upon a firm technological base, with students able to enter practice based courses offered by the School of Art especially designed for this degree. Throughout, the BA (NMA) emphasizes creativity and professional application and cuts across many disciplines which are often segregated in separate faculties. It is a degree that allows the student to include many electives and/or a major from another area in the University. The BA(NMA) provides a strong foundation for further study in the humanities and practice based new media arts – it also empowers you to negotiate the diverse and always changing options currently available in the career marketplace. Your Bachelor of Arts in New Media Arts will provide you with a qualification which is both flexible in its application and yet focused on current trends in digital technologies and their use in society.
