COURSE DESCRIPTION
Launch your career in the business and finance industry with confidence by harnessing specialist knowledge across two symbiotic degrees. Studying a Bachelor of Business will provide you with a comprehensive, multidisciplinary foundation to work as a business professional in varied business environments. It will give you experience in ideation, creation, validation, and execution of a business, whilst complementing the financial side of business with which you will be equipped through the Bachelor of Commerce.
In combination, these two degrees not only present you with a broad range of career options but also provide an opportunity to specialise in a chosen career by the scope of majors on offer. As a combined program you will build financial competencies, business analytic and decision-making skills and collaboration skills through experiential learning and authentic assessment tasks relevant to study area of interest.
This combined degree allows students to complete their program in a shorter duration than completing back-to-back single degrees. Individually, both degrees equip students to think creatively and critically, problem-solve, communicate professionally, work collaboratively, make ethical and responsible business decisions, and work effectively in a global context that is increasingly uncertain and complex. In combination, these two degrees not only present graduates with a broad range of career options but also provide an opportunity to specialise in their chosen career. The variety of possible career alternatives offered through the Bachelor of Business is found in the scope of majors on offer. These include Entrepreneurship and Innovation, International Business, Management, Marketing, Marketing Communication, and Tourism Management. Students are also encouraged to complete an internship, and/or undertake study abroad opportunities or a study tour to further augment this highly experiential program. The Bachelor of Commerce degree is more technical and discipline-focused and aims to prepare students for a career as a professional in a specific field. This degree is designed to develop students’ financial competencies, business analytic and decision-making skills and collaboration skills through experiential learning and authentic assessment tasks relevant to the choice of major. Students complete a major which specifically prepares them for a professional career in Accounting, Actuarial Science, Big Data, Economics or Finance fields. By undertaking a specified set of subjects according to their chosen discipline, Bachelor of Commerce students graduating with an Accounting, Actuarial Science or Finance major are generally eligible to pursue professional qualifications offered by their field’s governing bodies.
