Course overview

Equip yourself for the challenges of the 21st century with our combined bachelor's degree in Human Rights and Arts. You’ll graduate with two degrees in just four years, a Bachelor of Human Rights where you will take a defined study plan and a Bachelor of Arts where you’ll choose a major from a wide range of options.

Why study this course?

UWA is the only university in WA that affords undergraduate students the opportunity to undertake a full program of study in human rights. Combining this with the Arts will equip you to think holistically, developing an enhanced awareness of relationships – with oneself, others and the world. You will graduate with two qualifications, having cut two years off the time it takes you to study two degrees. If you decide either degree isn't right for you, you can exit one and complete the other.

What will I learn?

Human Rights provides an understanding about real-world human rights challenges from a wide range of disciplinary perspectives. The Bachelor of Human Rights will give you the capacity to approach complex social and political problems from a range of perspectives.

Combine this with a Bachelor of Arts where you will cultivate your passions while developing career-ready transferable skills that are essential in every industry and can never be automated – they’ll set you apart from the competition and prepare you for a future-proof career.
