Bachelor of Creative Arts

The Bachelor of Creative Arts (BCRAR) is a three-year, on-campus degree across Adelaide City Campus and Magill, structured around a double-major model that lets students combine two creative disciplines from a wide range of options — including Comicbook Creation, Creative Industries, Creative Writing, Digital Media and Web Design, Festivals, Games Design and Production, and Immersive Media (virtual, mixed and augmented reality) — rather than committing to a single creative specialisation.

Common core courses run alongside the two majors, building broader knowledge of the contemporary arts and cultural sector plus entrepreneurial and critical-thinking skills applicable across creative careers. A significant part of the degree is collaborative, real-world project work — students work alongside peers from other creative disciplines to solve practical challenges, mirroring the cross-disciplinary nature of many creative industry roles, supported by access to dedicated creative studio spaces and production facilities.

The degree is deliberately broad rather than narrowly vocational, aiming to produce graduates with transferable creative and entrepreneurial skills that apply across a wide range of creative-industry roles rather than a single fixed career path, spanning publishing and comics, arts and cultural advocacy, digital media production, festival and events management, game development, and immersive/XR media production.
