Media and Digital Cultures offers a distinctive critical engagement with the role of media in cultural life and the exercise of power.
As contemporary workplaces continue to shift to online models, a media and digital cultures major will be looked on highly favourably by future employers. Savvy digital media professionals are constantly in demand due to their expertise and ability to engage people through businesses, organisations and events. You could become a digital media specialist or manager and work in-house or as a consultant. You might decide to use your organisational and technical skills to work in events and marketing as a coordinator. If a sales-like role interests you, you could also work as a media buyer, overseeing and negotiating the price and purchase of media.
“UQ’s Bachelor of Arts gave me a diverse learning experience, offering a variety of courses with the opportunity to explore different areas of interest. I enjoy taking the practical use of theories and knowledge that we learn in class to the real cases we use in our daily life. I find it especially interesting to challenge our shaped ideas and understand the world from different perspectives.”
