BA(Curtin)
This course is not available to International Onshore Students on Student Visas
This course is designed for students located at the country campuses of Curtin to select from a range of available units within the humanities disciplines. It is suitable for students seeking a broad-based undergraduate degree with the potential for specialisation at postgraduate level. Courses of study will be constructed around each student's individual interests, drawing from the units available to the student within the nominated study location.
None.
STAT elements considered are E and either V or Q.
Applications for recognition of prior learning are assessed on an individual basis.
The course is three years full-time or equivalent part-time study. It is expected that a substantial component of the course will consist of external study.
The course structure consists mainly of elective units and enables the combination of a variety of available units relevant to a wide range of employment opportunities and to further study. There is an opportunity to select units from those being taught at the campus within other courses, external study options, units offered through Open Universities Australia, online units or project-based learning (at third-year level). Opportunities for cross-institutional enrolment will also be considered. A minimum of eight units at second year level and a minimum of five units at third year level must be undertaken in this course.
The multidisciplinary nature of a Bachelor of Arts provides broad analytical training instead of specialisation in any one area, thus maximising the career paths that can be followed. It is expected that many graduates will undertake postgraduate study in order to specialise.
Students may be expected to purchase a number of textbooks, readers and other essential study materials.

Students who elect to transfer from the Bachelor of Arts into one of the more specialised Curtin Bachelor of Arts degrees during the course of their undergraduate study may be required to undertake additional units in order to achieve a satisfactory level of specialisation.
Curtin University reserves the right to alter the internal composition of any course to ensure learning outcomes retain maximum relevance. Any changes to the internal composition of a course will protect the right of students to complete the course within the normal timeframe and will not result in additional cost to students through a requirement to undertake additional units.
