bachelor of communication honours

Sarah Lawry, 2009 labsome Professional Communication graduate, has recently commenced work at Telstra as part of their graduate program. Congratulations Sarah!

Below you will find a link to the pdf of the slides to be used for this year's honours information session. It is much the same as previous years with minor changes.

An information session for students interested in the B.Comm Honours program in 2010 is being held on Wednesday, September 23rd at 5.30pm. It will be held in Building 4, Level 5, Room 6 on the city campus of RMIT University. The session will be run by the acting Program Director of the B.Comm honours program, Rachel Wilson.

UPDATE: The proposed changes listed below are no longer being considered and so it is anticipated that the existing Bachelor of Communication (Honours) programs will continue in their current format (Journalism, Public Relations, Media, Advertising, Professional Communication).

As per the previous entry, the first round of offers have been made. If you applied, and receive an offer, then the letter will indicate a deadline by which you must enrol. Enrolling is how you accept the offer. If you do not enrol by the required deadline then you will NO LONGER BE ELIGIBLE for honours as your place will then be offered to someone else.

Offers for those who have applied for places in 2009 have been made. This means of those who have applied selections have been made and then these will be entered into the appropriate systems. This means letters should be arriving shortly indicating whether or not you have received a place in labsome for 2009.

Applications for the 2009 labsome cohort closed on November 10th. This does not mean that you cannot apply, this is just a deadline after which all applications received by that date are collated, and then delivered for selection decisions to be made. (So, if you haven't applied but think you'd like to do honours in 2009, you really do need to apply urgently.)

The Program Information Guide (aka PIG) for honours is now available on the official school website. The guide contains all the key information about subjects and the program structure for each of the honours streams in labsome. Check the school program info web page for the pdf.

Closing date for honours is November 10, 2008. However, you can apply after this date, but from this date I will be making offers until all the places (10 full time places for 2009) are allocated. More details about the application process is available.

Below you will find a link to the pdf (actually I usually present it via Keynote) that is a brief introduction, come pitch, to labsome. Questions to adrian dot miles at rmit dot edu dot au if you're interested, and yes we take students from anywhere (if you're good enough).
