The Bachelor of Media Arts (BMA) empowers students to thrive as media practitioners working with the latest creative ideas and technologies. In a world of rapidly changing digital technologies, this three-year program recognises the need for imaginative and critically informed media practitioners now and into the future. With a focus on developing skills and knowledge across a range of digital and screen-based media, the BMA allows students to experiment with a variety of media technologies, platforms, and ideas. Whether working with animation, visual effects, moving image, sound, or 3D visualisation, BMA students explore their individual interests within a supportive, interdisciplinary, and peer-oriented learning environment. Bolstered by studies in the histories and theories informing current practices, BMA students simultaneously develop their creative and critical thinking skills, enabling them to undertake a range of careers across the artistic, creative, entertainment, and technology industries. Through a rich engagement with diverse media arts ideas and practices, the BMA equips students to creatively respond to and lead the mediated experiences of the future.
