Comm (lib studies) @ UNSW (1 Viewer)

[oly1991]

I've recently discovered an interest in this course, and i was wondering if anyone could enlighten me on what this course entails.

I have researched this course quite a bit but i'm still unsure of some aspects. For example, on the liberal side, UNSW states that you are allowed to choose 6-9 courses. Say i was to randomly choose english, food and nutrition, pyschology, mathematics, english etc. would i be able to pursue a career in one of these liberal units e.g. nutritionist, pyschologist, journalist etc. haha. Or will my career opportunities resemble a plain commerce course?

I know that I probably appear naive and stupid right now. But i really want to know what my career prospects will be if I persevere with this course.

Help on thise issue would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hehe, adorable - not stupid. A little naive perhaps but made me giggle so +1 to you.

You can't become a nutritionist, psychologist, journalist etc from 1 subject - or every degree would be done in 1 subject, not 3+ years hehe. It gives you a chance to study broad electives apart from commerce subjects

On the UNSW handbook, when you click what area you'd like to specialise in, it says which career prospects would be available to you =)

Good luck ^_^
