Adelaide University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Undergraduate
CRICOS: 04249J
Our Bachelor of Arts is flexible and future-focused, nurturing creative thinking - and career preparation. The Population and Migration Studies major is interdisciplinary, exploring global and Australian population dynamics and migration. You'll tackle big questions in the field. Why do people choose to live in the city? How does migration change the culture of a country? What are the social impacts of overpopulation? Through data analysis, policy examination and case studies, you'll learn to lead effective policy change and make informed planning decisions. Learn to think critically so you can understand and interpret population and migration shifts with nuance, grasping the many complexities, realities and implications. You'll study not just numbers, but real stories - building applied quantitative and qualitative research skills. Get hands-on with practical case studies and field trips, learning to collect, analyse and present real data. These practical, in-demand skills will prepare you for careers in government, demography, immigration, social services, education, healthcare, NGOs and urban and regional development.
