2008 BA Handbook


The Melbourne BA offers majors and minors across almost 50 traditional study areas in the humanities, social sciences and languages. You have the opportunity to focus on majors and minors (specialisations) that will be acknowledged on your official transcript of results. Majors culminate in final year ‘capstone' subjects that provide refined discipline knowledge to bridge your undergraduate experience to professional employment or graduate study.
