UndergraduateCommunications & Media

Bachelor of Communication

University of Queensland, Brisbane, QLD, Australia

About this program

UQ's Bachelor of Communication trains students in professional communication across digital, visual and written media, starting with core principles of communication, media environments and audience engagement before students specialise in either digital media or strategic communication. Later study includes real communication challenges tackled through internships, giving students first-hand experience in content development, campaign design, and social media engagement and analytics rather than only studying communication theory. Core courses include introduction to strategic communication, media and society, and public relations project work, and the degree can be combined into a dual program with business management. Graduates typically move into roles such as communications manager, communications adviser, public relations specialist or communication and engagement officer across corporate, government and non-profit sectors.
