2. Global Security - What are the international security challenges that leaders face, and how can communication, strategy and policy help manage this?
3. Languages - Develop communication skills that go beyond multilingualism, explore the nature and politics of language, and grow a stronger appreciation for cultures and communities.

With the Master of Communication Design you will develop expertise in communication design practice, and focus on design entrepreneurship and strategic design thinking.

Push your creative boundaries and think critically to find design solutions to communication challenges.
Develop expert knowledge and specialised technical and creative skills to prepare for professional roles in multidisciplinary environments, including communication design studios, digital design consultancies, advertising agencies, design teams within other organisations, and in independent practices. You will be able to work independently or in teams, and you will be able to communicate confidently with other design professionals and clients.

You will enhance your practice through studies in:

• Strategic design thinking
• Best practice in communication design
• Typography
• Theory and criticism
• Research methods.

Under expert guidance from RMIT’s team of nationally and internationally renowned practitioners and educators, you’ll advance your knowledge and practice as a communication design practitioner and will be well prepared to contribute to global industry developments and design innovation.

We live in a data-driven world. Huge volumes of information are generated at ever-increasing rates via social media, financial transactions, transportation, and scientific discovery, and the skills to understand this data have become a top priority.

The new interdisciplinary field of data science combines areas of computer science with mathematical statistics and domain expertise to manage and analyse data. Specialists develop the capability to derive insight and opportunity from the vast repositories of information that organisations collect. Data science also puts an emphasis on the specialised computational skills required to manage and analyse big data from sources such as social media, massive sensors, mobile and transaction data.

Through data science, businesses gain a competitive edge, governments deliver more targeted services, and research teams make new discoveries.

Gain the skills and knowledge you'll need to enter the diverse and rewarding field of environmental engineering.

RMIT's Bachelor of Engineering (Environmental Engineering) (Honours) offers you the chance to specialise in engineering fields critical to solving the world’s environmental challenges. Land contamination and rehabilitation, energy, hydrogeology, wastewater treatment, and sustainable cities are strong focus areas.

During your environmental studies, you’ll learn engineering concepts and technical skills to:

• Preserve the environment
• Minimise water, soil and air pollution
• Assess the environmental impact of engineering projects
• Develop remediation measures for environmental degradation
• Deliver sustainable solutions through engineering processes.

Elective subjects such as the Humanitarian Experiential Learning Project will provide you with the opportunity to gain a global perspective of the world’s environmental challenges and the role environmental engineers can play in solving them.

Graduate from this degree with the skills and knowledge to conserve water resources, supply safe drinking water in challenging contexts, undertake rehabilitation of contaminated land and groundwater, design systems to sustainably manage wastes and reduce the environmental footprint in urban and rural communities and prepare environmental impact studies for major infrastructure projects.

Work integrated learning opportunities will provide you with real-world experiene and industry connections. You’ll have the opportunity to design creative solutions through inspiring and sustainable design and build projects, and take part in the Engineers Without Borders Challenge.

The Associate Degree in Digital Technologies (Advanced Manufacturing) is designed to cover emerging digital manufacturing technologies.

Graduates of this degree are equipped with the knowledge and skills required to pursue a career within Industry 4.0 technologies, which connect the physical world with the digital world.

In this qualification, students will be trained with emerging technologies including:

• Industry 4.0
• Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)A
• dditive manufacturing
• Digital twinning
• upply chain 4.0
• Mindsphere
• Smart manufacturing
• Robotics
• Mechatronics
• Automation and process control
• Software applications
• Cyber security for industrial network.

You will build the skills required to pursue a career in this rapidly-expanding and in-demand field, and may be suitable for roles as a systems technician, cyber security technologist, advanced manufacturing technician, industrial network design associate, and more.

The Master of Commerce caters to students from many different backgrounds and is highly student-centred and flexible in its design, allowing you to choose from specialisation sequences from a range of business disciplines.

This degree is highly flexible in its design, allowing students to choose subjects from across a range of business disciplines. By completing this advanced degree, graduates are equipped with a solid base of skills and the specialised knowledge required to take their careers to the next level.

Students can complete a Master of Commerce through two years of full-time study, or even less if you're a business graduate. Online and flexible learning options are also available.

In this sustainability-driven degree, you'll learn why civil engineering is the foundation of cities.
