Welcome to Arts 3
gloSsary of TERms Academic Advice Day Academic Advice Day is designed to help you decide what you wish to study within your Arts degree. There is a myriad of discipline options available within Arts, many of which you may not have been exposed to before. To help you make an informed choice about which disciplines you wish to explore within your degree, we ask that you attend as many discipline information sessions as possible during Academic Advice Day. You may just discover an area of study that will become a life-long passion.
Enrolment Completing and confirming your enrolment is an essential part of accepting your place at the University of Melbourne. It is up to you to ensure that your enrolment is completed within the timeframes set by the University. If you have not done so already, you should complete the first administrative steps of enrolment as soon as possible. This involves logging in to the University’s secure online enrolment website, and completing the administrative steps on your online enrolment form. It is important that you record receipt numbers after completing each step. These steps should be completed prior to seeing a student advisor for subject selection. If you are not able to complete your enrolment within the deadline set by the University it is extremely important that you contact
4 Arts at the University of Melbourne
an advisor in the Arts Student Centre as soon as possible. Failure to complete the enrolment process within set timeframes may result in additional processing fees or worse still, the loss of your place in the degree. You will be required to re-enrol each year for the following academic year, this usually happens in the OctoberDecember period. During this time it is very important that you course plan for the following year during the timely re enrolment period. Failure to do so will result in a fine and even worse cancellation of you place in the course. Look out for notifications of the re-enrolment period through your Student Portal.
Orientation Orientation for new students takes place in the week before classes commence. Orientation usually runs from Tuesday to Friday in the last week of February and at mid-year in the last week of July. Orientation is all about making contact with teaching schools, preparing for the first weeks of semester, making friends, joining clubs and societies, and discovering the University campus. You should use the orientation period to finalise your timetable and find out the locations of your lecture theatres. There is nothing worse than sneaking into your first lecture 10 minutes late because you couldn’t find the right theatre!
You will be given a guide to orientation activities, the University orientation program will include a host of activities designed to introduce you to University life and includes student club functions, activities, information and welcome sessions, library tours and plenty more. Your first couple of weeks at University is the best time to ask questions and find out what you need to know. At University, unlike school, it is up to you to find out what you need to know, so don’t be afraid to ask questions (no matter how silly you think they sound) as chances are someone else is wondering about the same thing too.
Subject Selection In the next few days you will need to select a range of subjects you would like to study in your first year. It is important that you take the time to consider which subjects you want to take at level one of your degree before attending an appointment with a course advisor. At the appointment, you will have the opportunity to discuss your plan for your degree and have any of your questions answered. The subjects you take at level one will dictate the direction your course will take and which major/s you complete. If you would like to meet with a course advisor you will need to make a booking at: http://arts.unimelb.edu.au/amsc/ my-advisor/online-services/
Subject One unit of study (usually 12.5points) in a particular area of interest. For example the subject ANCW10001 Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia is a subject offered within the area of Ancient World Studies. You are normally required to complete 4 subjects per semester, 8 subjects per year.
Subject points Progress throughout your degree is measured by a points system. In order to complete your degree, you will need a set number of points in a particular sequence. Bachelor of Arts students are required to complete 100 points of study at each of first, second and third year levels, and 300 points in total. Most subjects are worth 12.5 points. However, some subjects are worth 25 points depending on the contact hours and amount of work required to complete the subject. You must complete at least 50 points of first year study before you can progress to second year study.
Major A major is a focussed program of study (or specialisation) in a particular area. Completing a major gives you an in-depth understanding of a particular area or discipline, and prepares you for particular career outcomes or leads to postgraduate study. All non-language majors feature a compulsory capstone subject taken at third year. The capstone subject ties together the major themes explored in the discipline. Most majors require 100 points of study across three years; however, a few require more points.
Details of each major sequence can be found in the course and subject handbook at: http://handbook.unimelb.edu.au All Bachelor of Arts students are required to complete at least one major within their degree.
Minor A minor provides a focused program of study in a particular area, but includes fewer subjects than the major and does not include the capstone subject. Most minors require 75 points of study.
Arts Foundation Subjects
The first two weeks of semester The first two weeks of semester are a time of adjusting and settling into the academic year and your new degree. It is a good idea for you to spend the first week of semester attending as many different lectures as possible in order to get some idea of which subjects and disciplines interest you most and which do not. You may find that a subject that you have attended but have not officially enrolled in, interests you much more than one you are enrolled in. You have the first two weeks of semester to change the subjects in your enrolment.
In your first year of study you must complete at least one Arts Foundation subject. Arts Foundation subjects are taught collaboratively by experienced Arts academics, and are structured around a central idea or theme. Arts Foundation subjects are designed to assist in transition to University provide you with academic skills and facilitate informed study choices for the remainder of your degree. There is a full listing of 2013 Arts Foundation subjects on pages 11 and 12 of this guide.
Breadth You are required to complete up to 25% of your degree in an area of study from outside the Arts discipline. This requires a minimum of 4 subjects and a maximum of 6 subjects. Breadth will allow you to develop other areas of expertise separate to your major or minor. More detailed information on Breadth can be found on page 13 of this guide.
Welcome to Arts 5
gloSsary of TERms The student portal and subject variations This is the online tool that you will use to access all of your personal, course and University information. It is very important that you access your student portal regularly to check your email, lecture notes and important University news. You will also make changes to your enrolment through the Student Portal. From time to time, the University will get in contact with you via the Student Portal and your University email account. You might be contacted about the requirements for the degree, opportunities to enhance your study, and administrative matters. The ASC sends a monthly newsletter that will keep you up to date with important, timely information. It is essential that you check your student email via the portal every couple of days during your studies here. This includes checking in the breaks between semesters, as a lot is happening behind the scenes during the summer and winter recesses. When you make changes to your enrolment, such as requesting leave or enrolling in subjects, you will submit the changes to your student centre via the online student portal. Online subject changes are only available during some of the year and you will receive notification of when it is possible to enrol online via your University email account. If you try to change your subjects online at other times, you will get an error message. 6 Arts at the University of Melbourne
You can access your portal at: https:// portal.unimelb.edu.au. To log into the Student Portal, use your email login and password.
Learning Management System (LMS) The LMS is the online space where students can find subject requirements, assessment information, staff contact details, subject readings and lecture documents plus a range of tools that can facilitate group and individual work including discussion forums, wikis, blogs, audio recordings and tests. The LMS is accessed from the Student Portal or via the LMS web site: http:// www.lms.unimelb.edu.au. The LMS will be an invaluable tool and you will use it constantly to support your studies so make sure you are familiar with how to navigate the LMS.
Important dates for subject changes You have until the end of the second week of each semester to vary you enrolment, such as swapping, adding or deleting subjects. After this, you can withdraw from subjects up until the subject census date. > standard semester one subjects the census date is 31 March > standard semester two subjects is 31 August > Intensive subjects have different census dates, depending on when teaching takes place and when the final assessment is due.
You will find all your subject census dates on your Liability Statement. You will be eligible for a refund of fees if you withdraw from a subject before the census date. Under special circumstances, you may be permitted to withdraw from a subject after the census date has passed. If you withdraw from a subject after the census date, you won’t usually be eligible for a refund. Students seeking a late withdrawal or refund of fees for withdrawn subjects should consult Arts Student Centre staff. Your enrolment is your responsibility. Make yourself aware of subject census dates to avoid being liable for fees for subjects you aren’t going to complete.
Special Consideration From time to time, unexpected things happen that have an impact on your ability to study and complete assessment within the deadline. Special consideration is the University’s procedure for taking into account any uncontrollable factors that may adversely affect your studies. As part of your application for special consideration, you will need a medical professional to complete the Health Professional Record (HPR) form in support of your application. Through the HPR form, the ASC is provided with independent evidence that something out of the ordinary has occurred, and this allows them to make special arrangements with you while ensuring equity and the integrity of the course. If you need consideration for reasons other than health or injury, you must
still submit your HPR form and attach relevant documentation (for example, policereports or death notices from the newspaper). When you apply for special consideration, you will need to indicate what considerations you feel you need to achieve parity in your studies. You may be afforded additional time to complete assessment, permission to take assessment at a later date, to have an alternative form of assessment or have a relaxation of the hurdle requirements for a subject. Special consideration will not be used to raise your results (for example from 58% to 62%).
Extension Policy Special Consideration is only granted in very special circumstances, if you are seeking an extension for a less severe reason you must consult The University’s Extension Policy https://policy.unimelb. edu.au/MPF1029. This policy allows you to apply for an extension up to and including 10 days and can be negotiated with the academic in charge of assessment. Please familiarise yourself with this policy as it is more than likely that you will need to utilise it at least once throughout your studies.
Student Reasonable Adjustment Procedure The Student Reasonable Adjustment Procedure (SRAP) is designed for students who have an ongoing condition or situation that has a negative impact on their studies. In this case, the ASC works with the student to set in place reasonable adjustments that will assist in ensuring you get through your
studies successfully. As with Special Consideration, you may be afforded additional time to complete assessment, permission to take assessment at a later date, to have an alternative form of assessment or have a relaxation of the hurdle requirements; but these adjustments are set in place at the beginning of the semester in order to assist you in successfully managing your study load in light of your adjustments. If you feel the SRAP may be of benefit to you, meet with the ASCs Equity Officer(s).
Hurdle Requirements The vast majority of Arts subjects have a hurdle requirement. This means you are expected to attend between 75-80% of your tutorials in order to successfully pass the subject. Tutorials are an important aspect of the Arts learning environment so it is important that you attend your tutorials and contribute to the discussions taking place in these tutorials.
Alternative Exam Arrangements In order to ensure that all students are treated equitably, the ASC can help make alternative examination arrangements for those experiencing significant difficulty or students who have special requirements. These arrangements should be set in place as early as possible in the semester to allow enough time to make any possible changes occur. Diabetic students, for example, may be granted special permission to bring food, drink and blood sugar testing kits into their exam or a student with a broken writing arm may be permitted to type their exam at a computer. If you think you may need an alternative exam arrangement
organised for you simply make an appointment to see an Equity Officer via the Arts Student Centre.
Academic Progress There is the chance that you might run into difficulties with your study and fail one or more subjects. If this occurs, you may be required to meet with a student advisor to discuss strategies to improve your academic performance in the coming semester. If you are not successful in overcoming your study difficulties over the following semesters, you may eventually be required to discuss your enrolment with the Faculty Progress Committee. This is a worst-case scenario and Arts Student Advisors try wherever possible to put structures in place to assist you in successfully completing your degree. If you are ever concerned about your progress, see an advisor in the ASC for advice. You can also make use of the Melbourne University Student Union student advocacy service, which is open to all enrolled students. See http://union. unimelb.edu.au/advocacy/ for details.
Tell Arts what you think Every semester the ASC runs focus groups to get first-hand feedback from students about what works and what does not work. This feedback from you helps us plan better, make improvements and work on what we do well. Look out for invitations to the focus groups later in the semester. At any time you can let us know what you think by filling in an online survey at www.arts.unimelb.edu.au/ amsc/my-advisor/online-services/ amsc-feedback.html, or by picking up a copy at the Student Centre.
Welcome to Arts 7
pLanNing yoUR DegrEe Your Responsibility While we are here to help you every step of the way you must take responsibility for your time at the University. This includes being responsible for subject choices, and understanding the structure and requirements of your degree, learning what services are available to you and accessing them when you need. Staff in the ASC and teaching staff are always happy to discuss any issues that may concern you.
How do I choose my subjects? In the time following Academic Advice Day you should think carefully about the information you have received. The subjects that you choose in first year can shape the course of your degree, so take your time when selecting them. Individual subject descriptions can be found in the University of Melbourne Handbook: http://handbook.unimelb.edu.au. Take note of individual subject codes as well as subject names, and write them into the blank course plan in this booklet. You should also look carefully at the subject timetable on https://sis. unimelb.edu.au/cgi-bin/subjects.pl
How many subjects should I choose? For most students undertaking full-time study, eight subjects per year is the normal load. For first year Bachelor of Arts students, this may consist of two Arts Foundation subjects, four core Arts disciplinary subjects and two Breadth subjects. If you are enrolling in a language, 8 Arts at the University of Melbourne
you will enrol in two language subjects, two Arts Foundation subjects, two other discipline subjects and two Breadth subjects. You may take fewer subjects per year, with anything over 37.5 points per semester considered a full-time student load. Be aware however, that taking a reduced study load means it will take longer to complete your course. If you are studying on a student visa, you should maintain a full study load (50 points) each semester.
How many majors and minors can I study? With careful planning in the first year of the Bachelor of Arts, you can complete two majors, or a major and a minor. Remember that it is a requirement of the BA that you complete at least one major.
Can I make up my own major or minor? No. Majors and minors have a set structure and consist of certain subjects selected by teaching departments. You cannot create your own major or minor but you are able to select from a wide variety of elective subjects available in each major and minor sequence.
What if I am too late in enrolling, and a subject fills up? In most cases there are no limits or quotas placed on the number of students who can enrol in any first year subject. This means that you won’t miss out on any subjects, no matter how popular,
even if you are amongst the last to enrol. Likewise, most second and third year subjects do not have a limit on the number of students permitted to enrol. A few subjects in level two and three do have an enrolment quota, usually because of a fieldwork, internship or overseas travel element. Enrolment in quota subjects requires permission from the academic coordinator of the subject. This should usually be obtained during the enrolment period in the year before the subject is taught. Any quota or special entry subjects are clearly labeled as such in the course and subject handbook.
Timetable and Class Registration Your personalised timetable will allow you to view your schedule and register for classes through your Student Portal https://app.portal.unimelb.edu.au. It is your responsibility to register for all of your classes using the self-registration system. Full instructions can be found in your Portal.
Subject Timetable To view the University timetable go to https://sis.unimelb.edu.au/cgi-bin/ subjects.pl and follow the instructions. On this page there is also a key to the way the timetable is displayed e.g. L1/01, L1/02 means the first weekly lecture for the subject is scheduled twice and you can choose which session you will attend; C1/01, C1/02, C1/03, C1/04 means the tutorial is scheduled at four different times and/or locations and you can choose which session you will attend.
Lecture Theatre Locations Familiarise yourself with your theatre locations. Details of all lecture theatre locations can be found at the following link: www.studentadmin.unimelb.edu. au/leclist.html There is also a free iPhone app; Lost On Campus, which provides you with an easy way to find your next class. Download it!
Textbooks Buy your textbooks and subject readers from the Co-Op Bookshop located on campus right next to the Baillieu Library – but only after you’re sure that you’re not going to change your subjects. Textbooks are expensive and you should never buy them before attending the first class of the semester, to see how you like the subject. Prescribed and recommended texts are listed in the handbook entry for each subject http://handbook. unimelb.edu.au and in the LMS.
Diagnostic English Language Assessment (DELA) If English is not your first language (or even if it is) we strongly encourage you to sit the DELA. The DELA will help identify any areas you may need assistance with and will assist us in ASC to refer you to an appropriate service. By sitting the DELA you will help us refer you better and ensure your continued success in Arts. DELA test times can be found in your Orientation and Enrolment Guide.
Library and IT Services The Library runs tours and research skills courses in the first few weeks of semester so that new students can familiarise themselves with the University’s library system. Find information at
www.lib.unimelb.edu.au about a wide range of classes available to University of Melbourne staff and students across all subject areas. Information Technology Skills offer a range of free online IT Skills modules for students. The Pick IT Up Online modules are online at the Student Portal, under the Studies tab. There is an IT student help desk in the Baillieu Library (ground floor) which you can visit if you are having any difficulties or if you have questions. The help desk is open 7 days a week.
Hints for studying at University University study is different from school study. At University you need to take in and understand more information in a shorter time. It may take you a while to come to grips with the volume of information you receive in classes. A key to being successful at University is to make sure you study regularly throughout semester. Get in the habit of studying every day, making sure you have read and understood the readings and papers for your classes. Reviewing what was discussed in each class with 24 hours works well as a memory aid. Create a weekly study timetable. First fill in your ‘solid’ commitments like lectures, tutorials, practical classes and work commitments and then fill in dedicated time for study. Don’t forget to leave time for breaks, social activities and exercise.
to prepare for each assessment task and you won’t be caught out trying to research and write a paper the week it’s due. Think about the way you study. Make your study interesting and varied – don’t bore yourself with endless reading and re-reading. It’s a good idea to have a specific task in mind whenever you sit down to study – for example ‘review lecture notes’ or ‘begin researching warrior monks’, not just ‘study history’. Think about the purpose of each piece of assessment. Know what is being asked for in each assignment, and what you must do to deliver it will help you succeed academically.
Attending Class Attending class is an essential part of being successful at University. Academic staff will not chase you down if you fail to attend class. Arts subjects generally have a 75% (or higher) attendance hurdle requirement. This means you can fail a subject for skipping too many classes.
Planning your course What you study in your first year impacts upon where your degree will head. It’s a good idea to plan the general direction of your degree now. Over the next pages you’ll find a number of course plans to fill in, to help you plan your degree.
Plan your assessment tasks for the semester. In the first week of semester you will be given an assessment outline for each of your subjects, with due dates for each task. It’s a good idea to plot these due dates out on a large calendar or year planner and stick it up where you study. You’ll always know just how long you have Welcome to Arts 9

Arts FoUndATion Subjects Students must undertake a minimum of one (12.5 points) Arts Foundation subject in their Bachelor of Arts or can elect to take a maximum of two (25 points) Arts Foundation subjects; Arts Foundation subjects will count towards individual non-language major/minor sequences at level 1. Students who elect to undertake two majors can choose an additional Arts Foundation subject, or a first year Arts subject within the same discipline area. Below is a description of each Arts Foundation subject on offer in 2013.
Semester One: Identity MULT10014
Language MULT10015
Power MULT10018
Who we are and what we do is all tangled up in our identity. This subject considers how identities are constructed and maintained through mediated processes of self and other. The subject investigates the myriad demands and devices that figure in constructing our senses of self and other (including language, leisure, beliefs and embodied practices). By exploring identity in diverse contexts, across time and place, the subject maps varying conceptions of self and other and how these conceptions are constructed and maintained. A key focus is on how these mediated conceptions of self and other are translated into material practices of inclusion, exclusion, discrimination, violence and criminalisation.
This subject provides students with a cross-disciplinary introduction to human language which allows for reflection on its nature and myriad aspects from a range of perspectives. It explores a number of paradoxes involved in language, including the following: languages create representations of the world, and creative uses of language form new and unexpected insights (e.g. in poetry and in scientific hypotheses), but language can also be used to prevent understanding (e.g. in propaganda); language makes thinking possible, but also constrains it; language is an intricately complex system, yet children acquire it rapidly; languages bind social and cultural groups, but they also divide them; each language has its own specialised machinery, but translation is possible; language is an important factor in identity, and plays a role in the history of groups and nations, but this complicates our learning of new languages and our interaction with different groups; language is the major vehicle of every situation of learning, formal or informal, but it is also the means of analysis and critique. The subject will allow students to develop insights into these paradoxical features of language, and how they constrain and enable individual consciousness, face-to-face interaction, and social life more broadly.
The idea of power is a way to grasp the character of social relations. Investigating power can tell us about who is in control and who may benefit from such arrangements. Power can be a zero-sum game of domination. It can also be about people acting together to enact freedom. This subject examines the diverse and subtle ways power may be exercised. It considers how power operates in different domains such as markets, political systems and other social contexts. It also examines how power may be moderated by such things as regulation and human rights. A key aim is to explore how differing perspectives portray power relations and how issues of power distribution may be characterised and addressed.
Welcome to Arts 11
Reason MULT10016 Reason, many believe, is what makes us human. Until recently, most scientists and philosophers agreed that the ability to use the mind to analyse and interpret the world is something intrinsic to the nature of our species. Reason has a long and extraordinary history. We will explore a number of inter-related themes: the nature of reason from Ancient Greece to our contemporary world; the ever shifting relationship between reason and faith; reason’s place in the development of scientific experimentation and thinking; shifting perspectives about the uses of Reason and, finally, how reason relates to theories of the mind, exploring the tensions between reason, the passions and the will. Reason will take you on a journey from Plato’s cave to the neuro-scientists’ lab. We will visit revolutions in science, thinking and politics. We will explore the impact of some of the great philosophers of history, including Plato, Aristotle, Hume, Bentham, Coleridge, Marx, Nietzsche, Foucault and many more besides. By the end of this subject you will have a deep understanding of the importance of the idea of reason to human history and philosophy. You might, even, be able to answer the question: ‘does reason exist?’
12 Arts at the University of Melbourne
Reason is an Arts Foundation Subject and we will argue that understanding the history and philosophy of reason provides great insights into many aspects of the humanities from political philosophy to understanding history. We will, of course, be paying particular attention to the foundational skills that will help you successfully complete your Arts major: particularly critical thinking and argument development.
Semester Two: Aboriginalities MULT10001 This subject will provide students with an introduction to the complexity, challenges and richness of Australian Indigenous life and cultures. Social and political issues will be considered through engagement with specific issues both local and national. Students will have the opportunity to understand Indigenous histories and apply disciplinary perspectives through the experience of Indigenous cultural forms which may include sport, fine arts and performances. Perspectives from disciplines and fields such as Art History, Eco-Philosophy, Politics, Criminology, Anthropology, Health Sciences, Cultural Studies and Linguistics will provide students with a multi-faceted introduction to Indigenous studies and Indigenous society.
Representation MULT10017 Humans grapple with representations of themselves and their contexts. They also like to imagine other possible worlds. We use words, language, images, sounds and movement to construct narratives and stories, large and small, about the trivial and the profound, the past and the future. These representations can help us to understand worlds but they can also create worlds for us. This subject explores how different genres such as speech, writing, translation, film, theatre and art generate representations of social life, imagination and the human condition. A key aim of the subject is to develop a critical appreciation of how language, images and embodied gestures are used to construct empowering and disempowering discourses.
Breadth in tHe ba Why is it important? Breadth studies are a feature of Melbourne’s new generation undergraduate degrees and make up one quarter of your study program. Breadth provides students with the opportunity to develop an understanding and appreciation of fields of study and disciplines that contrast with, yet complement, their core disciplinary studies and majors. The Breadth component enables students to learn about different methods of enquiry and different ways of learning and ‘knowing’. Your breadth component may consist of: > Subjects taken from other new generation degrees (Music, Science, Environments and Commerce) in disciplines different to your major area of focus; > Specially designed University Breadth Subjects which explore broad topics and draw together expertise from several faculties. > Subjects designed for breadth by faculties who are not teaching a new generation degree, such as Law and Education. The ability to think critically in diverse ways is a critical skill in the global knowledge era. Tomorrow’s leaders will be those who can appreciate and orchestrate the efforts of experts from many different fields, keep up with new technologies, and be attuned to different cultures and contexts.
How do I choose the Breadth subjects that are right for me? Breadth offers you flexibility to tailor your course to match your passions and career aspirations. You may choose to pursue a personal interest such as Music or take subjects from outside your core program that may enhance or add another dimension to your skill set e.g. Marketing. Alternatively, you may choose to enrol in University Breadth subjects that explore broad topics and are taught by academics from a number of faculties across the university. You can also take a sequence of Breadth study that will give you detailed knowledge in another area of study. Other practicalities to consider when choosing breadth subjects include: > Do you meet any subject prerequisites (some first year subjects, particularly in economics and science, may require completion of a specific year 12 subject);
Use the Breadth database to get in-depth information about breadth subjects available at all year levels https://app.portal.unimelb.edu.au/ CSCApplication/faces/htdocs/user/ breadth/BreadthSearch.jsp Breadth subjects available to Bachelor of Arts students: > All University Breadth subjects > Subjects from the Commerce, Environments, Music and Science degrees > A selection of undergraduate subjects offered by graduate schools such as Education and Law > English as a second language (ESL) subjects > The Arts Foundation subject Aboriginalities You are not permitted to enrol in core Bachelor of Arts subjects (such as languages) as Breadth.
> Do your first year choices cover any prerequisites required for interesting second year subjects you may wish to study, > Will your timetable clash with subjects from your main degree; and > Are there any special application processes or permissions required such as auditions in music?

Welcome to Arts 17
Enhance your Degree Getting the most out of your time at University is not only about attending class or admiring the architecture of the Old Quad (although it is lovely). There are many ways to enhance your university experience. Programs we highly recommend include:
Exchange and Study Abroad
Arts Internship
Arts students love overseas experiences, we’re very proud that the majority of students that study overseas are from our very own Faculty. Studying overseas for a semester is a unique way to broaden your horizons. Not only will you get the opportunity to immerse yourself in a different culture and meet new and interesting people, study abroad and exchange can strengthen your academic skills and help you develop greater self-reliance. It is great for your future career prospects. Better than any of this is the opportunity for real adventure. The University of Melbourne has exchange agreements with universities in 39 countries, so there are many to choose from. If we don’t have an agreement with a university you’d like to attend, we offer study abroad opportunities too. For information about destinations and planning an exchange or study abroad semester in your degree, check out the Global Mobility website at www.mobility.unimelb.edu.au.
This subject is aimed at Bachelor of Arts students as an ‘elective’ at either levels 2 or 3 and involves completion of an 80-100 hour work placement integrating academic learning, employability skills and attributes and an improved knowledge of organisations, workplace culture and career pathways. The placement should draw on specific skills associated with the course of enrolment. Pre-placement seminars will also include career development and planning, self-assessment, reflexivity and professional skills.
18 Arts at the University of Melbourne
On completion of the subject, students will have completed and reported on a course-related project in a workplace. They will also have enhanced employability skills including communication, interpersonal, analytical and problem-solving, organisational and time-management, and an understanding of career planning and professional development.
Community Volunteering for Change This subject will provide an understanding of the community sector and community development through a substantial volunteer experience. The aims of this subject are to enable you to undertake and report on a communitybased project, gain significant insight into workplace issues, and further develop your employability skills in communication, planning and organisation, self-management and problem solving. This subject will nurture your community mind while allowing you to receive credit towards your degree. You will develop critical understanding of the nature of citizenship and volunteering and the role of not-for-profit organisations in contemporary society. Through enrolment in this subject, students will develop skills as global citizens and leaders in communities and will contribute significantly to the community.
Arts Careers
Clubs and Societies
Involvement in careers events and services on campus will help you to develop your own career plans and connect with employers. In March each year, Careers & Employment coordinate a Careers Fair, attended by employers offering Graduate Employment Programs. Throughout the year, Career Forums are offered specifically for Arts students to showcase key career fields such as Public Policy, Publishing, Law, International Relations and Communications. Career skills training is available to develop skills in career planning, job seeking and resume preparation: http://arts. unimelb.edu.au/amsc/next-steps/
Getting involved in clubs and societies is a great way to meet and make new friends. Whether it’s scuba diving, photography, chocolate, playing cards, yoga, circus arts, politics, pool, debating, theatre, sports, religion, drumming or even unnatural llamas, taking on a leadership role in a club is also a great way to improve your organisation, communication and management skills and a whole lot of fun. See http:// union.unimelb.edu.au/clubs for information on the many clubs and societies you can join.
To enhance career prospects, it is worth considering opportunities to gain relevant work experience while studying. There are many ways to do this, including internships subjects, and on-campus activities – for instance taking on a role within a club, society or Student Union which has some connection to your career interest.
Melbourne Arts Student Society (M-ASS) Enrolled in an Arts subject? The Melbourne Arts Students Society (M-ASS) is officially yours for the taking. Membership will set you back $2 if you’re a Union member ($5 for non-members) and will score you an awesome keyring of the trademark M-ASS donkey variety, free BBQs on South Lawn, great deals from our sponsors and discounted tickets to our smashing events! Don’t let us fool you, M-ASS isn’t all hard work.
We break loose at least once a year with our Annual Essay Competition! Reap tangible rewards for all your study-tastic efforts at the end of June when we select a winner for publication in the Union magazine ‘Farrago’ and a cash prize! So if you want help with any Arts-related query, want to find out more about our events or join us in our noble quest to create socialawesomeness for our fellow students, come visit us in the Old Law Quad (Room G12A). Look out for the M-ASScot, the yellow and black ASS.
Honours The Bachelor of Arts (Honours) is a specialised year of study for students who have achieved academic excellence in their undergraduate degree. An Honours year enables you to extend your knowledge of your area of specialisation through higher level coursework subjects and an independent research thesis under the guidance of an academic supervisor. Students interested in undertaking an additional year of study in the form of an honours year should start to investigate the possibilities in their second year of study.
