Overview

This Communication (Digital Media) degree from Charles Sturt University is for those currently in a professional communication role, and those looking to change careers. It offers foundational studies in communication and creative industries, with specialisations designed for the modern workplace. Combine the foundational subjects with studies in science, information technology, business or another field to create a degree that suits your career and interests.

Study is now even more affordable when you save on your fees with a Commonwealth supported place (CSP). A CSP means you can apply for a HECS-HELP loan to pay for your studies and defer repayment until you earn above a certain amount. Check the 'fees' section to see how much you can save with a CSP.

This course is part of an articulated programme of study. Articulated programmes allow you to build on your study to achieve the right level of qualification for you.

Career opportunities:

Whether you currently work as a professional communicator or you aspire to do so, completion of the Master of Communication will ensure you stand out in a competitive job market. If you are already working in a professional communication context, this qualification will boost your prospects of entering leadership and management roles. This degree also provides a foundation for the pursuit of further research, such as a PhD, if you complete an academic dissertation.
