MESH Consultancy
MESH aims to provide students with a real-world, immersive and engaging learning experience. Across the Communications and Creative Media degree, students will have the opportunity to act as a MESH consultant and deal with a diverse range of actual clients with real needs.
As a student, you could find yourself working collaboratively with a group of peers to develop unique communications or build a website for a local not-for-profit. Students could also take on a more independent and long-term project through a professional placement with a local agency.
Working with real people on real projects ultimately prepared me in the best possible way for life and work after graduating.
Courses co-designed and co-delivered with industry.
The School of Media and Communication has received Federal Government funding to co-design, co-deliver and co-teach course materials with industry partners for undergraduate courses.
Teaching staff in the School of Media and Communication collaborate with industry experts to :
