Bachelor of Arts
The Bachelor of Arts (via Open Universities Australia) broadens access to the University and encourages students to undertake study towards a Griffith degree by maximising the advantages of alternative forms of program delivery.
The degree produces graduates with a broad background in general studies. The tertiary, higher education and business sectors increasingly need graduates trained in a range of humanities, social sciences and professional courses. The degree addresses this need by providing a structured degree that requires students to undertake a program of study across a broad range of offerings.
