Learn to produce innovative and compelling content across a wide range of existing and emerging media platforms.

The Bachelor of Communication (Media) program uniquely integrates practical production, conceptual analysis and critical reflection with professional industry knowledge to produce critically informed contemporary media professionals who are creative, socially aware and multi-skilled communicators. 

At the end of the degree the portfolio you create will demonstrate your abilities to produce, operate and innovate within a rapidly changing media environment.

Our graduates are technologically fluent and highly adaptable to the constantly evolving media environment. They are also creative thinkers and problem solvers employed across a wide range of industry sectors.

This is a dynamic and industry-relevant degree where you’ll explore practical and theoretical decoration and design frameworks to support a wide range of projects, creating innovative interior concepts and proposals.

Underpinned by the exploration of sustainable practices in the planning and specification of interior structures, there is a strong focus on the application of materials and surface treatments, furnishings, and colour and lighting solutions to create aesthetic and functional spaces in both residential and commercial environments.

Projects will provide you with opportunity to work directly with industry to develop an understanding of associated vocational roles.

On successful completion graduates may be employed in assisting in commercial design offices, working with lead designers in boutique design or decoration consultancies, working in colour consulting, and fulfilling design and decoration consultation outcomes in other related retail and wholesale sectors of the industry.

As an interior designer and decorator, you will create aesthetically pleasing and functional spaces working to design briefs. You’ll also design residential and commercial environments, drew sketches and produce samples of your designs. You will work directly with clients, specify materials, finishes and colour schemes, provide advice on artwork, supervise on-site design and construction, keep up with global trends and communicate effectively with clients and project consultants.

Combining studies in urban planning and built environment with the social, economic, and political environment, the Master of Urban Planning and Environment equips you to shape efficient, practical, healthy, and sustainable cities.

Develop skills in critical analysis and draw from diverse sources to engage in professionally-relevant projects, conduct research, and promote effective policy outcomes. Benefit from practical and experiential learning, working on urban planning problems in the field, and consulting with industry.

This degree is widely supported by industry; the majority of urban planners in Victoria are RMIT alumni, and employers actively seek our urban planning and environment graduates for their unique combination of environmental science and policy skills.

Upon graduation, you will be eligible for membership of the Planning Institute of Australia.

This degree is offered online and face-to face. It is primarily taught through evening classes during the week, with some topics delivered through intensive full-day workshops. All core topics and some electives are also offered online in case students aren’t able to study face-to-face.

Prepare for jobs of the future, explore multiple areas of computing and tailor your degree to your interests.

RMIT's Bachelor of Computer Science will provide you with in-depth knowledge of systems infrastructure, software methods and technologies, and application technologies from both the theoretical and practical aspects.

This degree will also provide you with a fundamental understanding of all aspects of computer technology, computer hardware, operating systems, computer networks, data structures and algorithms, database systems, software engineering and organisational issues.

Learning in RMIT's revolutionary programming bootcamps and studios, and developing the skills required by industry, you will explore real-world problems that will equip you with the knowledge and agility required to thrive in this expansive and competitive field of computer science.

This degree provides you with the flexibility to choose your career pathway. Whether you want to specialise in AI, blockchain, cloud computing, game design, computer security, data wrangling or computational science, you will have the opportunity to study industry-relevant subjects that will challenge you and advance your career.

You will graduate with outstanding programming skills, the ability to design, implement, and maintain complex software systems which drive mobile devices, social media and intelligent robots, and the ability to adapt to new advances in information technology.

In this sustainability-driven degree, you'll learn why civil engineering is the foundation of cities.

With RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Civil and Infrastructure) (Honours), you’ll be at the forefront of engineering education designed to satisfy industry demand.

Developed with an environmental sustainability focus, this internationally recognised degree will equip you with the skills to plan, design, construct, supervise, management and maintain infrastructure projects in Australia and overseas.

Customise your degree to your interests and career goals. Specialise in civil infrastructure projects, geotechnical works, structures, transport or water resources, and choose from a broad range of industry-relevant electives.

Gain real-world experience through work integrated learning opportunities. Design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design and build projects, take part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge, complete industry capstone projects and undertake work placements in Australia or overseas, gaining a competitive edge and building a global network.

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) refers to the application of scientific principles to understand the risks to the safety and health of people in workplaces and to take action to control these.

Occupational health and safety is a multidisciplinary profession examining the technical and social aspects of work with applications in most industries and commerce.

The course focuses on the science and technology of risk management through assessment and evaluation of hazards and development of specific control mechanisms.

Learn how to apply a risk management model to hazards in the workplace, allowing you to recognise the context, evaluate the risk, and generate control solutions. You will use the model of OHS Professional Practice for problem solving which involves gathering information about the issue, diagnosing the issue, developing and implementing appropriate interventions, and evaluating their effectiveness, all the while communicating with relevant stakeholders.
You will develop advanced knowledge in:

• The global concepts of health, safety and work, and the implications that these have in organisations
• The socio-political and organisational context in which work occurs and how this impacts work design and its effects on the workers
• The physical, ergonomic and psychosocial causes of fatalities, injuries and ill health arising from work
• Recognition of hazards, assessment and evaluation of their risk, and development of suitable controls

You will learn to apply these concepts in a range of contexts, allowing you to develop confidence and proficiency in your professional OHS and occupational hygiene practice. Many of your assessments will incorporate Work Integrated Learning (WIL) by focusing on OHS issues in your work situation.
