Programme taken: Bachelor of Arts in Communication and Media Studies and Public Relations (Double Major)

Endeavouring to improve my education and hone my competitive edge, I sought a Double Major to broaden my career options within various industries and expand my horizons. I chose Murdoch University, a renowned institution that offered a Communication and Media Studies and Public Relations Double Major Degree programme.
The programme was taught by quality lecturers who were supportive and adept in their knowledge. They imparted skills directly applicable to my career in the PR industry and encouraged us every step of the way.
Of the various modules taught, I found the Campaign Management module to be most effective in my role as a Public Relations & Marketing Executive. It provides professional PR skills through practical experience, requiring us to work in teams to craft our own PR strategy and communication plans.
Thanks to the recognition of Murdoch University and my Double Major qualification, I have personally noticed that, since graduating, I was offered more employment opportunities than before and had no difficulty securing jobs. As such, I definitely recommend Murdoch University.

Programme taken: Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Criminology (Double Major) – NEW!
I chose to study Psychology and Criminology to acquire practical knowledge that would improve my skills and competitive value, aiming for an eventual Master’s Degree.
As a part-time student, a quality education could immediately impact my career. Hence, the Psychology and Criminology Double Major Degree programme provided by Murdoch University was perfect. Both subjects enhanced my understanding of human behaviour, thus improving my response time to potential threats. This allowed me to study and apply what I had learnt to my work concurrently.
In addition, Murdoch University Psychology Degrees being recognised by the Australian Psychology Society (APS) has given me an edge due to their recognition.
After great effort and numerous sacrifices, my work has paid dividends. The Psychology: Individual Differences and Performance, and Criminal Behaviour modules in particular, have directly contributed to my work. Having to juggle between my job and studies has also reinforced my time management skills.
I found that this programme has raised the bar of my career performance and given me a competitive advantage in the market. Thus I would highly recommend studying with Murdoch University.
