Career Opportunities
Communication gives students a wide range of employment options, both in terms of the type of work they undertake and the industry sectors in which they can be employed. From healthcare, financial services, IT, community organisations to not-for-profit and government, the opportunities are endless. And the industry is constantly changing. A decade ago, the role of a social media manager might not have even existed. Today, however, almost every organisation is involved in social media one way or another.
What our students are saying
"I decided to study UniSA Online’s Communication degree because of the various topics and disciplines it covers. Once I graduate, I intend to pursue more senior-level roles within my current organisation. This degree will continue to equip me with further skills, knowledge and abilities that will provide an edge when it's time to move on to a role with more responsibility."
