Arts videoText versionThe Faculty of Arts was one of the foundation faculties of Monash University. Our purpose is the pursuit, advancement and application of knowledge in the humanities, social and environmental sciences and creative and performing arts. The Faculty's eight academic schools are responsible for the creation and dissemination of disciplinary knowledge through individual and group research and through the development of undergraduate and postgraduate teaching programs. Students can structure their degree to suit their interests and career aspirations. Arts at Monash provides students with skills such as critical thinking, aural and verbal communication and teamwork, which are increasingly sought after by employers. Some schools incorporate Centres which have evolved as dynamic sites for the growth of interdisciplinary knowledge. Arts at Monash attracts leading scholars researchers who are recognised internationally and widely published in their fields. The Faculty is among the most internationally recognised and innovative Australian centres of research in the humanities and social sciences. |
