The Bachelor of Arts at the University of Wollongong will equip you for today’s rapidly changing world.
The creative sector is one of the world's fastest-growing, most dynamic industries.
In the digital age, writing is becoming more and more central to how we communicate.
The Bachelor of Creative Arts (Creative Writing) teaches skills and strategies so your writing is solid and transparent.
It helps you express ideas in imaginative ways that will impact your readers.
Creative writers work in various areas: poetry, editing, writing for multimedia, commercial and content writing, commercial theatre and performance, short stories and novels, or even in ways that combine or challenge these forms.
Creative writers might write to entertain or to educate – but they’re constantly drawing on the human condition, exploring what it means to be human.
This course teaches you to think about your story, image and scene.
Creative writers draft and re-draft so their work is at its best, and this process is exciting.
Undertaking a work-integrated learning experience during your university education is now a significant contributor to being competitive in securing employment in your field of choice when you graduate from UOW.
The Faculty of the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities internship program allows students to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in their degree in a workplace setting.
