Groundbreaking original research
Communication and creative arts researchers at Deakin achieve world-class outcomes in communications and media research in film, television and digital media, in performing art and creative writing, and in literary studies.
The SCCA's research is founded on the rich historical dimensions of humanities research, but is also all about the new cultural landscape generated by technological revolutions and social changes.
The school’s research outcomes are innovative and experimental, exploring emergent concepts and fresh practices that track the new connections between communication, creativity and public spaces.

- film studies and the production of films
- the politics and craft of journalism and the news
- technologically-mediated performance, including dance and drama
- historical and contemporary dimensions of literary texts and publics
- creative writing
