Creation and communication

Study the news, create films, produce music, and make digital content: studying media at RMIT can open up a whole world of creation and communication. We cover journalism, music, screen media and more. 

You'll blend theory with hands-on tutorials, connect with industry contacts, learn to tell stories, build strategies and execute creative projects.

Join a vibrant intellectual community at an institution that is globally recognised for its creative graduates.

RMIT media alumni can be found in a range of major national and international media organisations,  working in roles including political reporters, journalists, and radio and television production.

Our graduates are known for being work-ready, through their practical skills and a knowledge and experience through internships. Graduates may find work in film and television, public and commercial radio, internet and mobile media, screen culture, social media, journalism, marketing, publishing, academia, the music and games industries, and the government sector. 

Students make history on election night

Journalism students were given the opportunity to host the live state election coverage from the RMIT media precinct, joining Channel 31 to present of-the-minute updates and commentary on election night. The professional-grade tools and equipment available in the media precinct made for an impressive broadcast.

Together with students from Monash, Deakin, La Trobe, Swinburne and Melbourne Universities, the show was anchored, directed and produced by students, including live crosses via mobile and graphics designed in-house. 

Putting their technical and practical skills to the test, students made history by being the first local media to call in the final result of the night. 

With RMIT, you will learn from creators and practitioners with years of experience. You will benefit from our state-of-the-art media suite and work with professional-grade technology and materials.
