UWA Design is a dynamic and collegial multi-disciplinary School offering undergraduate and postgraduate programs in History of Art, Fine Arts, Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Design. The School is organised into the correlating five discipline groups, and additionally houses the Australian Urban Design Research Centre (AUDRC). Academic staff deliver high quality teaching and learning, and produce internationally renowned research across scholarship and creative practice. Our School is future-focused and comprehensively prepares graduates for careers, further study, or research within Australia and around the world.

One of the five discipline areas within the School, History of Art offers a Major through the Bachelor of Arts; a Curatorial Studies Minor; and from 2025 is introducing a Bachelor of Art History and Curatorial Studies, followed by an end-on Honours degree. Becoming a greater focus within the new degree, curatorial studies is key to future career opportunities for students and graduates from a range of study areas. It is integrated within History of Art and intersects with the Fine Arts offerings within the School, as well as fields of education and research in other schools at UWA. The appointee to this position will help to develop this expanding field.
