Further develop your creative practice and hone your photography skills in this practical, industry-led diploma.

In the Diploma of Photography and Digital Imaging, you will have the opportunity to further develop your artistic practice and hone your creative skills. 

Designed to build practical and highly transferrable skills across a range of industry contexts, including commercial, advertising, documentary, editorial, institutional and fine art photography, this qualification will teach you to:

• Interpret photo imaging assignment briefs
• Consult with clients to refine objectives of photo imaging assignments
• Select the appropriate tools to capture images, including types of camera, image recording media, lighting, post-capture processing and outputs
• Work from a studio or in a range of locations
• Employ aesthetic, conceptual, compositional and technical skills to realise photo imaging outcomes, and 
• Utilise a range of traditional, contemporary and emergent technologies in the capture, preparation and distribution of images.

As a graduate of this diploma, you will have a sound theoretical and practical knowledge base, and the skills to use a range of specialised and technical skills to plan, execute and evaluate photography and photo imaging services.

Are you interested in industrial design? Would you like to create change? This discipline shapes the world we live in.

Industrial designers have the ability to affect change and create powerful solutions that improve both human and environmental health and wellbeing.

Exploring the trans-disciplinary nature of contemporary industrial design. You'll engage in practical learning through our practice-based design studios, co-creating solutions through a human centred approach to product, service and experience design contexts.

For over 70 year’s industrial design at RMIT has offered aspiring designers ground breaking experiences through technical, theoretical and applied immersions into the diverse and dynamic fields of industrial design practice. Working on real-world problems in industry and community contexts, this hands on educational experience culminates in a year-long honours design research project. 

You will develop a design practice through:

• The design of sustainable products, services and systems
• Design as a mechanism for enabling social reform and cultural enrichment
• Commercial and aesthetically-focused approaches to product, transportation and furniture design
• Technologically and materially mediated interactions and experiences
• The possibilities of form, process and material in response to rapid technological advances
• Operating at the intersections of our digital and material worlds
• Using design as a conduit to address social sustainability, cultural awareness and the wellbeing of clients, users and communities

Join the ranks of successful urban planners when you undertake the Bachelor of Urban and Regional Planning - the only degree of its kind in Victoria.

Urban and regional planning is more than just creating physical environments; it’s a way of sustainably changing and shaping the world. In this degree, you will focus on sustainability and its place in urban planning policy, equipping you with the knowledge and skills you need to pursue a career as a policy and planning leader.

Not only will your studies cover urban planning in Melbourne and its regional surrounds, you will also be introduced to planning practices across the world. You are encouraged to complement this knowledge with a semester abroad at one of RMIT’s sister universities, and get to know urban and regional planning in a global context.

This degree emphasises the benefits of practical learning. By participating in industry-relevant, real-life projects, you will be introduced to leading practitioners in the field, learn best practice methodologies, and graduate job-ready - with industry connections, and a degree that is accredited by the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA).
