Building a creative community

The creative industries foster individual creativity, skill and talent and offer diverse and rewarding career opportunities. This philosophy is upheld by the Creative Industries Faculty.

Working closely with partners from government and industry, the faculty has positioned itself as a leader in the development of creative industries in Queensland and nationally and aims to become an internationally networked hub of creative enterprise.

The creative industries include:

• literature and print media
• visual and performing arts
• music composition and publishing
• new media such as animation, games and Internet content
• design
• broadcasting electronic media and film
• heritage activities.

The QUT Creative Industries Faculty teaches across all these fields and places them within the new creative industries framework, stressing enterprise development and pro-active management of your career.

We encourage our students to learn not just their craft, but also to learn how they fit into the broader creative industries and the even broader enterprise economy.
