Course structure

First year

Your first year will begin with the Arts Discovery subject, which will introduce you to the diverse multidisciplinary approach which distinguishes Arts at Melbourne. The skills you’ll develop in this subject will establish a strong foundation for your study no matter which major you choose, and can be applied to help address major societal and cultural issues beyond graduation. You will also take Arts discipline subjects and breadth subjects.

 

Second year

By your second year, you will have a better understanding of the Arts disciplines offered and be able to finalise your selection of majors and minors. You will complete the second-year subjects in your major(s).

 

Third year

In third year, you will undertake a capstone subject in your major(s), designed to draw together your fields of specialisation and prepare you for life as a graduate. You will also take the remaining third-year subjects to complete your degree.
