NOW, I need all the help I can get (1 Viewer)

Last night I was going through my UAC guide, stressed about what to choose.

I found Arts in Communication (Social Inquiry)

What I like about this course (from what I've read) is that we get practical experience.

In the Additional Information paragraph of the course, it talks about belief systems, cultural studies, gender and diversity...
Does that mean we get to learn about racism etc?

And seriously, what kinda jobs can you get this this course?
When my mum heard that doing this course can lead me to work for the government, she was really happy. lol

So what kinda jops?

What IS social INQUIRY?

Can I work for organisations like Amnesty International or World Vision?

How's the practical experience like?

What IS social INQUIRY?

That question is the running joke of first year, because no-one can give you a straight answer. Beyond that, there's a thread. I could link to it, but I'm too lazy. Also I am too lazy to answer questions I already answered in that thread. Yep, I'm an arts student alright
