Bachelor of Business
Real-world impact
The world of business has never been more dynamic. Global markets. Integrated tech. The need for sustainability. Our business courses put you right at the cutting edge. You'll undertake real-world assignments – for example, how would you devise a strategy to expand manufacturing into Japan, or market the reduction of single-use plastics? You'll study alongside researchers addressing today's business challenges, from local to international sustainability to workplace wellness for paramedics. And you'll learn all about the role of big data in business.
Focus on your future
You'll start by gaining a broad understanding of the key areas of business – everything from marketing to management, and that's just the m's – then in year two, you'll choose from one of five business majors to suit your future career goals.
Connection to industry
Your connection with industry starts from your very first lecture. The course has been designed in consultation with industry representatives from across business sectors, from finance and health to tourism and management. And you'll get guest lectures from industry leaders, like Jane Hillsdon, manager of the award-winning Dragonfly marketing agency. You will have opportunities to make professional connections and build your CV as you progress through your course via professional development placements in an industry area you're interested in – anywhere across Australia or the world.
