Program Outline
The Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree is globally accepted as the degree which provides most flexibility for students, while equipping them with the skills base essential for many careers. The choice of courses available in the BA is extensive, and this is reflected in the list of possible majors. We aim to accommodate students with both specific study interests and career plans and also those who want to sample new disciplines and explore associated employment opportunities. Students have complete control throughout their degree, with expert guidance on appropriate course selection available at all times.
Music programs provide the intensive professional training required for employment in the music industry. They seek to provide a challenging and stimulating learning environment in which all students may achieve their full potential. They develop educated, flexible and imaginative graduates who possess the knowledge and skills required to function effectively in a wide range of professional contexts.
The Bachelor of Music Education combines a study of music with a major study in music teaching. Graduates are able to apply for registration as a secondary school teacher in South Australia.
The combined degree Bachelor of Arts/ Bachelor of Music Education comprises completion of the Bachelor of Music Education (96 units) plus selected Level I, II and III Arts courses (52 units) to finalise the Bachelor of Arts program. It enables students to pursue a broad range of interests in music and the arts in a self-designed, integrated academic program. The study of foreign languages is of particular significance to vocalists and musicologists, while history or anthropology may be of particular interest to an ethnomusicologist. Various media studies may also be of interest to Composition and Music Technology majors.
