The Bachelor of Communication (Writing and Publishing) Bachelor of Creative Intelligence and Innovation program at the University of Technology Sydney is a combined degree course intended for students who are interested in the interplay between writing and publishing practice and the techniques of creative intelligence and innovation.
The writing and publishing aspect of the program allows students to develop skills in creative writing, professional writing and publishing. The course explores different types of writing, including fiction, non-fiction, writing for performance and media, and writing for online and social media.
On the other hand, the creative intelligence and innovation component is transdisciplinary, which means it incorporates elements from different disciplines to address complex, real-world problems. This includes creative thinking, entrepreneurial activity, and creating and interpreting information based on research, data and technology.
The ultimate goal of the program is to equip students with a unique combination of skills for creating and communicating in written forms, along with developing the ability to adapt, create new knowledge, and imagine future possibilities in various professional fields.
