3 Art, Humanities, Social Sciences and Teaching Programs within the Faculty of Arts provide students with an appreciation of, and perspective on, the world and the extraordinary richness, complexity and connection between human culture, civilisation, and the earth s environment, geography and natural resources. The Faculty of Arts is proud to offer programs that are diverse, dynamic and distinct, and that enable students to follow their passions to many career paths. Students emerge from their studies with skills in communication, creative and critical thinking, decision-making and research that are sought after by employers. University of Adelaide graduates pursue fulfilling careers in today s evolving job market. For students who have strong interests in more than one discipline, undertaking a double degree makes it possible to study additional topics. Most double degrees can be completed in four years and students graduate with two parchments. There are many areas to investigate when studying the arts, humanities and social sciences. Anthropology Using new and challenging perspectives, Anthropology studies the diversity of humanity, culture, identity and the different ways communities live. Art History and Visual Culture** Art History and Visual Culture offers a dynamic and inspiring concentration of courses that explore the making, meaning, reception, and consumption of historical and contemporary images and objects. Investigation of both high art and popular culture from global and multicultural perspectives enables the development of sophisticated levels of visual literacy in the areas of visual analysis, critical thinking, and persuasive communication skills. Asian Studies Asian Studies offers insight into the beliefs, ideas and social, political and economic structures that shape Asian countries and society. The discipline explores aspects of modern Asia s history, culture, literature, economics, trade and business. Classics The cultures, societies, religions, literatures and political ideas of ancient Greece and Rome have left potent legacies. Classics students develop analytical research skills while learning about aspects of archaeology, history, art, thought, literature, society and politics from the birth of civilisation. Creative Writing Students gain a practical introduction to creative writing, and learn ways to begin and develop a sustained and reflective writing practice that includes revising and editing. Students can become more proficient and versatile writers. Criminology Criminology is the study of crime and deviance as a social phenomenon. It aims to understand why people commit crimes and the social responses to it, including attempts at control. Development Studies Development Studies explores issues related to poverty reduction and sustainable development with a focus on the developing world. Students debate the determinants of economic growth, the causes of civil war, the nature of good governance, the sources of environmental sustainability, the links between gender and development, and the effectiveness of aid. Economics* Economics students learn how the economy works in the context of global economic forces and how governments deal with issues such as unemployment, international trade and taxation. English English students learn how to think and write critically about great literature and other communication forms, such as film, TV, books, plays, poetry, manuscripts, digital media and magazines. Students delve into past and present literary and filmic works and hone research, communicative and interpretive skills that will serve them in their future academic and professional lives. Gender Studies and Social Analysis Gender Studies and Social Analysis investigates the ways in which women and men understand gender. Students consider the different ways rewards and difficulties of work are experienced (in Australia and elsewhere in the world), and explore pop culture, such as fashion and television. In addition, the gendered experiences of health, sexuality, relationships and youth in the workforce are examined. Geography, Environment and Population Geography, Environment and Population students learn how to analyse environmental processes and the human interaction within them at local and global levels. Questions posed include how can, and should, the world cope with an ever expanding population? How will climate change impact the planet and its people over the coming decades? How will humanity respond to the challenges of food security, biodiversity loss and water management? What should future cities, towns and rural landscapes be like? Arts 1
4 History History students are able to immerse themselves in events from Australia and around the globe and study the impact of warfare, conflict, film, migration, slavery, colonialism and commodity production, political movements, religion and the law on the world.

The discipline explores issues of concern to Indigenous peoples, including culture, language, the environment, history and politics. Students will understand and communicate the significance and value of first-nation knowledge systems in a changing world. International Business* Students gain knowledge of, and a foundation in, business and can focus on specialised areas of international management and international marketing. Languages Language students gain language skills and understanding of the cultural heritage of the societies that communicate in their chosen language of study. Courses include Chinese Studies, French Studies, German Studies, Indonesian Studies, Italian Studies, Japanese Studies, Modern Greek Studies and Spanish Studies. Linguistics Students of linguistics examine the role of language in human communication, and analyse different forms of language and communication. They learn about the role of Australia s linguistic heritage and the importance of preserving linguistic diversity. Management* Management is the process of administering and coordinating an organisation s resources efficiently and effectively in an effort to achieve goals. Management students develop the skills required to successfully manage changes in work structures, process and product technologies, employment relations and organisational culture. Marketing* Marketing students investigate the role of marketing within and between organisations. They gain a grounding in marketing theory, learn how to prepare marketing reports and plans, undertake a diagnostic case study of an exporting firm, analyse advertisements in a variety of media, and apply market research as part of a group project that focuses on a real business problem. Media Media students explore the dynamic and creative role of media in contemporary society. Students can tailor the program to an area of interest in media research, analysis or production. Additionally, students develop skills in media writing, journalism, and media technology use, which see them well placed to pursue a range of career opportunities. Music Studies Develop an understanding of music from different genres around the world in its social and performative contexts. Learn about the history of music analysis with a focus on music research and skills. Philosophy What is the nature of reality? What is knowledge? Should euthanasia be permitted? Can society s opinion about the value of morality and art be objectively justified, and if so, how? Philosophy aims to resolve such questions using debate, reasoning and critical thinking. By choosing this discipline, students can join the great philosophers throughout the ages in the love of wisdom that is philosophy. Politics and International Studies Politics students explore the ins and outs of political decision-making, justice and democracy. They learn about Australian politics and public policy, the politics of other countries, and the relations between them. They have the chance to debate the burning issues in domestic and international governance as great powers rise and changing societies produce new political problems. * Must be taken in addition to a first Faculty of Arts major chosen from those listed. **Not available as a major.

20 Teaching The Bachelor of Teaching double degree prepares students for teaching in secondary schools. The double degree enables students to pursue other interests while studying education. Disciplines are available in many fields including: accounting, business studies, economics, English, geography, history, information technology, languages, science and English as a second language (ESL). Bachelor of Teaching students are also able to study a combination of science, maths and information technology (IT) subjects not offered at other local institutions. Teachers with a focus in these areas are currently in demand within the profession. The University of Adelaide is an innovative, research intensive university. Consequently, there is a strong connection between research and discovery and the teaching curricula. Courses are informed by the latest research findings and knowledge, meaning degrees and the topics studied are at the cutting-edge and relevant. Teaching placements In the second semester of their first year, Teaching students participate in an observation placement in a local primary school. This provides professional experience working with school students, teachers and a school community. In the third year, students are placed in country secondary schools for one week to gain valuable experience and build on the theoretical knowledge they have acquired. In the fourth year of the degree, students participate in two professional placements in secondary schools in metropolitan and country South Australia. These placements provide handson experience in the subject area of a student s degree. Students in fourth year may also elect to participate in the internship program that is held in association with a number of Adelaide schools. Upon graduation, students can register to work as teachers in South Australia and in popular overseas locations such as Hong Kong, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. University of Adelaide teaching graduates are highly sought after by local schools that are keen to employ new graduates each year. University of Adelaide teaching graduates have the potential to become leading educators in South Australia and beyond. More about placements Throughout the teaching degree, there are a number of professional experience opportunities. These include the country secondary school placement and internship placements with partner schools. The country secondary school placement is undertaken in year three of the degree. Students are asked to make a contribution towards the cost for this placement. In the final year, students undertake two professional experience placements (in a participating school) as their internship placements. Opportunities exist with some of Adelaide s bestknown schools. These schools are dedicated to providing teaching students with mentoring, knowledge development and hands-on teaching practise. To participate in the internship program students are asked to apply to the partnering school via the University s School of Education. Places are limited and highly sought after. Working with minors All students enrolled in teaching degrees will be required to obtain a child-related employment screening certificate. Without a current certificate, students cannot participate in professional experience placements at levels 1, 3 and 4, which are core components of the teaching degrees. Further information regarding the clearance certificate can be found by visiting the School of Education s website. Students will also be required to complete an approved Responding to Abuse and Neglect course. Details will be supplied upon enrolment. Student study commitment To successfully complete courses, students will need to allocate an appropriate time commitment to their study. In addition to the formal contact time required for each course (e.g. lectures, tutorials, teaching practicums) students will need to allocate non-contact time. Non-contact time will be required for a range of activities, which may include, but are not limited to: assessment tasks, reading, researching, note-taking, revising, writing, consulting with staff, and informal and formal discussion with other students. While the relative proportion of contact and noncontact time may vary from course to course, as a guide, a full-time student would expect to spend, on average, a total of 48 hours per week on their studies during teaching periods. The workload for undergraduate programs is eight courses per year (full-time). The workload for undergraduate programs is 24 units per year (full-time). 18 Arts
