Read more: What can I do with my degree?

I chose Creative Arts mainly for the theatre aspect, I wanted to get into acting and I wanted to figure out what it was like to share stories and learn empathy through other people's stories as well. My passion is to empower other younger Indigenous students and enable a stronger platform so they can feel strength in their identity.

Help others tell their own story

Daniel wants to use his creativity to help other people tell their own stories. He graduated from the University of Wollongong with a Bachelor in Digital Media and now works for a not-for-profit arts organisation, making art in the community to promote social change.

My name is Daniel De Filippo and I've just graduated a Bachelor of Digital Media. I'm working for the not-for-profit organisation, Beyond Empathy. They're an arts organisation. We made art in the community to promote social change.

Over the last six months I've been learning coding. We did a show, Beyond Empathy and I called Blue Rose and that was using sensory installations using that coding that I'd learnt. I want to use my creativity yo help others tell their own stories.

Follow your passion

A UOW Creative and Performing Arts degree immerses you in creative industries and equips you with the practical experience to be cutting-edge in a fast growing creative economy. Experimenting with different art forms and mastering your craft will help you build your skills and cultivate your own creative identity. Be inspired to do your best at a university that understands what it means to be creative.

One of the most satisfying things about teaching at UOW is to see students achieve things that they never imagined they would be doing. When our students begin their foundation year they're very enthusiastic and you can see their creativity and critical thinking really developing. So the best thing about creative arts is that it has the flexibility to cater to you. It's really up to us we get to create our own piece or composition that in the end of the degree can all come together to create a portfolio as fast as artists.

We set up real world scenarios as much as possible we emulate an industry-based practice so we're teaching people not only how to be thinkers and conceptualisers, but also practitioners in a very real industry world.

All the teaching staff and academics are experts in the areas that they're teaching. For example in visual arts all staff teaching are practicing artists. We have musicians and composers, we have theatre play writers, we have actors. So students studying here really studying with practitioners people who are expert in their field.

Every student that comes here can engage with technology to the degree where they can make their own album, get that out to the world in a professional way, that in in no way is lesser than anything that they would do at any commercial facility.

I think it's really fantastic to see our students develop really close working relationships. These relationships continue beyond university where they continue to make music together. Through studying I've met people who have helped me grow and done some exhibitions together, done some collaborative graphic design projects that have eventuated into real briefs with real clients. The students that we turn out here I think are really well equipped to begin that journey into the creative industries. There is a real investment both from students and the teaching faculty in this idea of building a community.

Where relevant to the UOW degree, specified credit may be given for specific subject(s); where not relevant to the degree, unspecified credit may be awarded.

Study information

Further information.

UOW double degrees aim to broaden a student's knowledge and skill base and improve career options in competitive, increasingly interactive fields. The programs are designed to enhance a student's educational, academic and professional qualifications whilst minimising the costs of their studies.
