CREATIVE CAREERS ARE KICKING GOALS
If you’ve been toying with the idea of studying Creative Arts or Industries, there’s one major thumbs-up that you may not have fully considered.
Creative industries offer lots of career opportunities.
Lots.
A 2018 analysis by the somewhat un-creatively-named Bureau of Communications and Arts Research (BCAR) puts the economic value of Australia’s creative industries at $111.7 billion in 2016-2017. That’s around 6.4% of Australia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
That’s Jeff Bezos kinda money.
We offer one-on-one appointments with our prospective student team to discuss career options, pathways, and course and entry requirements.
Australia’s creative industries spread the wealth around, employing over 1 million people according to the Australian Government, with around 160,000 creative businesses in operation.
From design to fashion, film, electronic media, broadcasting, digital media, performing arts, visual arts and crafts, advertising, publishing and more, the breadth of our creative industries is astounding, as is the variety of jobs available.
And the creative industries don’t just employ artists and actors. There are jobs in a huge variety of fields – costume design, creative writing, visual effects, animation, communications – you name it.
After you graduate, you could even leverage your creativity and industry knowledge in an unexpected direction, like arts administration or management, marketing, or heading down the entrepreneur road and fitting out one of those 1950’s silver caravans as an on-set taco catering van for major movies… ok, that one’s a stretch, but the point is that studying Creative Arts can open up doors you never knew existed.
