About Bachelor of Arts, BA, UG:Bachelor, Bachelor Degree - at Massey University

Focus on subjects that you enjoy, while learning to be a creative, critical and independent thinker.

A Massey Bachelor of Arts is your passport to discovering, questioning and understanding what it means to be human, across societies and civilisations past and present. Celebrate and learn from humanity – our ever-evolving richness and diversity, our conflicts and cataclysms, our triumphs of art and knowledge. You’ll be introduced to new ways of making sense of the world. Your assumptions and ideas will be challenged. Your ability to make informed choices, evaluate evidence and construct reasoned arguments will be strengthened. And you will use your intellect and imagination to generate imaginative solutions to complex local and global challenges.
