Bachelor of Arts (Korean Studies)
Korean is the fastest-growing language among non-native speakers, and with the global popularity of K-pop and K-dramas, the interest in Korean culture is no surprise. In this major you’ll explore Korean society, culture, history, politics and international relations and gain strong competency in the Korean language.
Psychology and Human Resource Management
Use your knowledge in psychology to help resolve issues in the workplace, recruit and engage employees and improve individual and team performance.
Indigenous Australian Research
The Indigenous Australian Research honours course at Curtin University provides specialised training for graduates in research in Indigenous Australian contexts.
Security and strategic studies explained
Have you always been curious about how countries, organisations and communities protect themselves from cyber, terrorist or military attacks, or deal with challenges such as climate change or pandemics? If so, you might like to consider a career in security and strategic relations.
Hear from our graduates
I really enjoyed the interactive nature of the classes and the opportunities to study from real-life sources of Japanese in a creative way. The opportunity to go on an exchange and participate in the Kobe University Summer Program were defining parts of my study experience at Curtin.
