Overview
The Bachelor of Visual Arts is South
Australias most prestigious and
comprehensive undergraduate
visual arts qualification.

Artistic ambition
With an ambition to work in the visual arts industry
and the desire to pursue her passion, Lizzy decided to
study the Bachelor of Visual Arts, specialising in art
history and theory.
I was interested in studying at UniSA as the School (of
Art, Architecture and Design) has an illustrious history
with many notable graduates.
I have had a really positive experience with the
teaching staff in my degree. I have felt supported
to take risks and to think seriously about my career
beyond the classroom setting. During my Honours
year I undertook an internship as a Curatorial Intern
at the Womens and Childrens Hospital, for the Arts
in Health program. This experience allowed me to
develop my skills and see myself as a professional.
I have enjoyed being challenged by my studies and
it was so rewarding to have my hard work validated
through receiving the University of South Australia
Medal for Outstanding Academic Achievement.

Theories and History of Architecture

Before commencing university Amber was unsure


about what to pursue. Torn between art and social
sciences, she discovered architecture as the perfect fit.
Studying architecture has allowed me to express my
creativity while learning the technical fundamentals
of design and construction. The teaching staff at
UniSA have encouraged me, throughout my studies,
to explore my interests and this has enabled me to
develop my own style of design.
The University also provides opportunities for
hands-on learning. I travelled to Vanuatu to work
collaboratively on designing tourist accommodation
on Tanna Island. This experience opened my mind
to the impact that built environment can have on a
community. I saw first-hand how small architectural
insertions can have great effect in changing the
social dynamic.

Working on real-world projects for real clients,


as part of my study, led to designing a medical
training aid, together with another student, over an
18-month period. The product has won a number of
awards including the Design Institute of Australia
(DIA) SA Branch Gold Student award, DIA SA Branch
Premiers Award and has been a James Dyson Award
National Finalist.
The benefits of undertaking such projects is that
they come with real research to do, users to survey,
clients to please and constraints to design around
these sort of things just cant be emulated.
Studying at UniSA gave me the opportunity to
work on what I enjoy alongside like-minded people.
I worked on a wide range of interesting projects,
learnt a host of useful skills and made a number of

An enticing challenge
Nathan discovered an interest in interior architecture
theory while writing his Honours thesis. He wanted to
explore the impact his ideas and research could have
for both the teaching environment and his own
studio practice.
I enjoyed studying my undergraduate degree, and
had established strong connections with the staff in
the program. I was encouraged by their support and
interest in my ideas, particularly as UniSA is the only
university in the state to offer interior architecture.
I was also enticed by the challenge of thinking at a
PhD level!
As my ideas are new and constantly evolving, I
feel that the environment at UniSA, physically and
academically, is the most aligned with my interests
and needs as an emerging thinker in the field. Having
the freedom and the dedicated time to broaden
my knowledge and then find applications for those
insights is very rewarding.
