Bachelor
The Bachelor of Business Administration focuses on applying theories to business practice and the overall management of an organisation. Students build on their cultural diversity, experiences and aspirations to develop relevant skills in managing enterprise initiatives. Students learn how a multidisciplinary perspective can be used to address economic, financial and social issues, including those relevant to the Indigenous community.
This course prepares students for a career in business management by providing a thorough understanding of the core functions of management and business administration. Students are given the opportunity to explore various divisions and responsibilities of an organisation and how to operate effectively in a dynamic business environment. An emphasis is placed on decision-making and problem-solving, cognitive analytical skills to synthesise organisational knowledge in diverse contexts, and clearly communicating the ideas and solutions developed through a creative process.
Career options include management, administration and governance positions in the private, public and not-for-profit sectors, including Indigenous community organisations.
The course is structured into a series of modules designed to focus specifically on the core functions of management. Each module comprises four subjects (24 credit points), one of which is an applied project that consolidates and extends the knowledge taught in the other three subjects.
Students complete a total of six modules (144 credit points) to graduate from the course.
The project subjects from each module form part of a 'capstone stream' of subjects aimed to support and deepen students' generic and knowledge skills development in the final capstone subject.
