Careers

 
What will you do with your degree?
 
Graduates of the School of History, Philosophy, Religion and Classics are qualified for a wide range of possible careers, completing their degrees with new ways of looking at and understanding themselves, their society and their world.  Skills acquired through the study of Humanities-based subjects, such as the ability to think creatively, structure ideas and arguments logically and display evidence of strong written communication skills will be favourably viewed by any prospective employer.
Possible career choices include: teaching, journalism, the public service, administration, publishing, research and museum work. Undergraduate students seeking careers in academia may continue via the Honours program to undertake a research higher degree following the completion of their undergraduate programs.
 
For career ideas in the areas of arts, creative arts and music, please see the attached Faculty of Arts brochure.
  
Students have access to a range of services to assist with career planning through the University of Queensland’s CareerHub, which runs an annual Careers Fair, as well as workshops and various other career planning activities.
