Institute of Education, Arts and Community (International)

We give you creative license

The Institute of Education, Arts & Community (IEAC) is all about helping others – to learn, to laugh, to get back on their feet. You’ll graduate with the skills to educate, support or entertain – essentially, to stand in front of an audience and enrich their lives. Our discipline areas might be ancient, but the curriculum – and the way we teach it – is anything but. There’s industry experience on offer, too. Being part of IEAC means you’ll won’t just get a qualification, you’ll be ready for the spotlight.

IEAC allows you to express yourself. IEAC is your institute.

Academic Skills Day

Starting uni can be daunting. The research. The essays and reports. The online systems. We get it. That's why we're running Academic Skills Day during Orientation.

When: Friday 19 July, 1.30 to 4 pm
Where: Rooms 206 &207, Building 1N and Room 214, Building 1E
