Learning predominantly takes place within small-class sized, project-based studio environments that encourage active participation and develop skills in key contemporary media production practices.
Studio-based learning is a distinguishing feature of the Bachelor of Communication (Media). In studios, learning emerges through the act of making – an investigative and highly creative process driven by research, exploration, experimentation, critique and reflection.
Our staff have many years and varieties of teaching and industry experience. Guest lecturers and practitioners, including industry experts and graduates from the program, contribute significantly to courses through sharing their experiences of developing diverse, successful and adaptable media careers. They also provide feedback on project work that's in progress.
You will be taught how to develop and hone your creative process across multiple media formats and platforms, including film and video, podcasts, social and interactive media, and copywriting. You'll have access to state-of-the-art technology and facilities including TV, web and virtual studios at RMIT's City Campus.

You’ll learn through a variety of teaching and learning modes, including studios, lectures, seminars, tutorials, work-integrated learning and problem-solving workshops.
