The business sector is one of the largest employers in the world offering varying roles and careers. Business plays an important role in assisting to evolve a complex global economy by providing solutions to problems in a sustainable and ethical way. The Bachelor of Business provides students with the knowledge and experience to move into many types of business careers such as international business, finance, public relations, management and marketing. Students develop a comprehensive knowledge of business and organisations, and the skills to analyse business issues in local, national and international contexts. Students will also undertake a final-year capstone subject that lets them apply everything they've learned up to that point in collaboration with students from other disciplines. Plus, they have the option of applying for an internship that provides work-integrated learning. The Bachelor of Business is a flexible degree offering a broad education across all key aspects of the business environment. In addition to studying the essential core disciplines of accounting, economics, finance, management and marketing, students can tailor their studies according to their interests by choosing electives from a particular Business discipline, or they can combine Business electives with subjects from other disciplines.
