Selected major: Perspectives on Globalisation

Globalisation and international relations have transformed in the twenty first century, offering the potential for stronger human relationships with distant cultures connecting in an instant, but also the danger of heightened conflicts and tensions.  

Delve into the social, cultural and political trajectories that have unfolded in the digital age. With a focus on both diverse Indigenous and civilizational points of view, open your mind to the world’s cultures, beliefs and systems. Develop essential cultural competency skills and think critically about how the creative possibilities generated by globalisation can be fostered while the threats it poses are mitigated.

In this multi-disciplinary, you’ll learn about sociology, politics, history and Indigenous studies.

Why be on the outside looking in when you can be part of the vital conversation that shapes society and the world we live in? Explore the possibilities with Swinburne’s unique Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Applied Innovation double degree.

Our extensive arts offering provides plenty of scope to immerse yourself in the subjects that matter to you most. Learn how to gather, synthesise and assess information, conceptualise issues and express yourself effectively, both orally and in writing. Take on the future and offer solutions to the world’s most pressing problems with a transferable skill set of analytical thinking, cultural competency and digital literacy.

With your Bachelor of Applied Innovation, learn how to make decisions of impact, based on analytical and strategic thinking, human understanding and respect for future generations – with supporting technological know-how. Immersed in an interdisciplinary environment overseen by specialist academic teams who encourage a collaborative and entrepreneurial spirit, you’ll be challenged and inspired to develop transformative solutions to the complex challenges of today and the emerging opportunities of the future.

Both qualifications promise experiential learning through real-world placements, internships or industry-related project work.

Career pathways as an arts graduate are plentiful, from policy development to public relations, journalism to sociology, writing to community development. Your newly acquired innovation skillset raises you to a whole new level of employability, in your chosen field or beyond, in roles such as innovation consultant, strategic designer, start-up founder, human-centred researcher and transformation lead.
