BADIG2003 Digital and virtual environments
This intermediate-level Digital Humanities unit examines the social uses of technologies that involve simulated encounters with spatial environments. Students develop ways of understanding distinctions and relationships between the real and the simulated, and between direct and mediated interaction, in today¿s world. Moving beyond the traditional belief that online and virtual experiences are less real than direct contact, the unit gives attention to ways in which the virtual is part of our real world. Professional, community and recreational uses are considered. A range of examples are used as case studies, including education, professional training, First Nations perspectives, virtual travel, digital games and mediated relationships.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $997
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
