Bachelor of Arts
The Arts, Culture and Society option is designed to offer students a strong foundation for understanding the interconnection between cultural production and historical causation where ideas, art, architecture, literature, film and the performing arts function as agents of social and historical change. This option examines the intersection and interaction between politics, science, economics, social ritual and development, class, gender and race across a global environment over time.
