CDU's Master of Arts (Coursework) is a flexible, postgraduate unit-based course that offers students opportunities to develop competencies in a range of fields, enhance career progression, update skills, and pursue their interests in arts and social sciences. It also offers the usual preparation for students seeking a pathway into Higher Degree by Research programs, such as a Master by Research or a Doctor of Philosophy.
You'll choose to specialise in one of the following areas:
- Social Sciences
- Indigenous Knowledges and Engagement
- Indigenous Languages and Contemporary Social Issues
- Indigenous Research Practice
- Creative Arts
In addition to these specialisations, you can select a Research Option if you'd like to develop research skills and gain research experience alongside your coursework studies. The Research Option may equip students for entry into future HDR programs, depending on the entry requirements of the institution.
Whether you want to consolidate your expertise or forge a new career path, this degree will equip you with the analytical and critical thinking skills you need to succeed.
At CDU, you'll explore unique perspectives on the contemporary issues facing Indigenous Australia, Northern Australia and South-East Asia. Our lecturers are leaders in their fields and are ready to guide and mentor you.
In a world where opinions are rife, but facts and considered thought may not be, your ability to critically evaluate ideas, concepts and information will set you apart.
