In a world of global business, emerging technologies and multicultural societies, finding creative solutions and innovative ways to address human needs has never been more important.
The field of Arts and Humanities traditionally focused on the Arts, Culture, History and Languages, provides a fundamental approach to address this challenge by looking forward to an entrepreneurial world of globalised communication and media.
The Faculty of Arts and Humanities (FAH) offers a rich, multicultural, and exciting environment for students to engage at the intersection of Arts, Humanities, and Technology, addressing the great human challenges of our times.
FAH offers degrees in four key areas of study: Media, Art, and Technology; Architecture and Design; History and Heritage; Languages and Culture. Having these disciplines under the same Faculty provides a unique multidisciplinary environment in which students have access to exceptional educational opportunities and develop a sense of ethics and integrity as a person who can think rigorously, critically and creatively.
Above all, our students learn to value culture, human engagement and collaboration, which allows them to go beyond proficiency and become a master of their discipline.
