Bachelor of Communication (Digital Advertising)/Bachelor of Justice

Bachelor of Communication (Digital Media)

This course lets you combine communication studies with an emphasis on digital innovation, practical skills, and industry placements and connections.

Get industry experience through internships and work placements in government departments and agencies as well as media, advertising, and public relations organizations.

Our students have completed placements with Network Ten, Brisbane Festival, Hyperplex Cinemas, and BBS Communications Group.

In your third year, you'll investigate and engage with the local media sector, including contributing to the latest media platforms, and you'll build your professional networks.

We are a world leader in media and communication research, through the Digital Media Research Centre. If you're a high-achieving student, you may like to consider research pathways including the option to progress to a Ph.D.

Bachelor of Justice

You'll be job-ready by exploring the most recent theory and practice of social justice, and gain problem-solving, analytical and applied computer skills that are relevant to the workplace.

Digital media skills are a valuable addition to roles in law enforcement, government and private sector intelligence and security agencies, crime prevention agencies, and a range of community and government organizations.

Tailor your studies and choose from two majors: policy and governance, or criminology and policing.

The policy and governance major offers you the opportunity to learn policy analysis and the intricacies of how government officers research, analyze, recommend and develop policies in the justice sphere. Particularly, it gives you an insight into how policy is implemented and critiqued and evolves through the government and its departments.

The criminology and policing major details punishment and penal policy, crime research methods, and your choice of units in eco-crime, sex crime, death investigation, crime in pop culture, drugs and intelligence, among others.

The course is consistently refreshed to meet the needs of the community, government and police agencies for skilled staff. You will also benefit from academic staff who have worked in these areas and bring real-life examples and experience to your learning.

At a theoretical level, you will engage with the concepts of social justice, human rights, and equality to understand the way in which society defines, policies and punishes criminal behaviors.
