The specialisation in Arts and Social Sciences (A&SS) allows students to develop a 36 units of credit sequence of study to meet their individual professional, disciplinary or interdisciplinary development. Students must put forward a case for doing an A&SS minor from level 2 onwards that will enhance their Bachelor of Arts (BA) program. The content of the minor must be approved by the Associate Dean (Education) and must provide a coherent program of study. Courses may be drawn from any majors or minors in the UNSW BA and must conform to the UNSW BA rules. For example a student doing Film Studies may want to focus on ethics in Australian film, so may select course from Australian Studies and Philosophy.
