Excellence in teaching and research
Our courses explore the foundations of culture and society, how humans interact with each other and the built environment, and how people communicate and express ideas.
We have a long history of teaching many of our subject areas, and as such, we are very experienced and highly regarded in Australia and overseas for many of our courses including languages, literature, history and archaeology.
Specialised groups and networks across the school encourage networking, collaboration and information sharing between our students, researchers, academics and the community. These groups and networks help ensure our school is a supportive and active research environment.
Our departments
Our teaching, research and expertise across the School of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences is divided into six departments. Explore the expertise, research, activity, collaborations, partnerships and subject areas offered in each of our diverse and active departments.
