Why study Media and Communication at Flinders
*The Good Universities Guide 2020 (undergraduate), public SA-founded universities only
Being at Flinders allowed me to further my writing skills as well as enhance new professional skills like game design, critical thinking and graphic design. Media and Communication taught me more about how these fields work and was able to increase my skills. The internship topic in this degree is how I got to the Don Dunstan Foundation and connections made during my studies aided in my writing career. I still use my skills and knowledge attained during my studies every day, even when I’m not working.
