About the course

Welcome to Australia's only Bachelor degree dedicated to the art of Animation and Visual Effects. This course is devoted to students passionate about creating memorable visuals and fulfilling their desire to bring their imagination to life.

It’s about visualisation and making your imagination a reality. We’ll help you capture the concept in your mind’s eye and deliver it to the screen, print, theatre, canvas, or whatever format does justice to your idea. It could be a story, abstract experimentation, real-time3D generated content, or any other visual media for television, advertising, theatre, games or art gallery; the choice is ultimately yours.

Founded upon traditional arts principles, this relatively new degree provides a unique collaborative framework for students to explore their creative visual talents through diverse media and evolving industries with particular emphasis towards the digital realm.

Students gain a well-rounded arts education while being encouraged to specialise to increase employment prospects in increasingly competitive fields. Featuring cross-discipline opportunities, current industry standard software, knowledgeable lecturers, the latest learning tools, exhibitions/festivals, and a welcoming team environment founded upon creative arts practice, the course will motivate students to achieve their very best with a professional portfolio, demo reel and resume.
