The Communication Skills program is located in the Department of Linguistics and Applied Linguistics and provides a unique facility in Australian university education. Its mission is to create a culture of student excellence in written and oral communication, presentation skills and the application of information technologies. The curriculum is designed to assist students in Arts and other faculties of the University with developing and refining their academic and professional communication skills. These skills-based subjects will be of direct benefit to many students in extending the vocational opportunities provided by the Bachelor of Arts and other degree programs.

Students enrolled in an arts degree may credit a maximum of three skills subjects towards their course. See Skills-based subjects. Students from other faculties should check for skills subject limitations at their Faculty Office.
