About

In today’s globalised world where competition among businesses is at an all-time high, there are very few careers in which a comprehensive knowledge of business isn’t well-regarded. Those with capabilities in marketing, management, human resources, administration or entrepreneurship are increasingly revered as key influencers in contemporary workplaces.

The Bachelor of Business will introduce you to a broad range of foundation and future-focused business units that will equip you for the jobs of tomorrow in a wide range of industries. In addition, you’ll develop a valuable set of transferable skills - leadership, strategic thinking, problem solving, communication, teamwork, and sustainable and ethical thinking – all of which are highly sought-after in today’s rapidly evolving global business landscape.
