Arts - Business

Overview

In your first year, you will study core subjects relevant to all business and arts majors, building a foundation for the rest of your studies. You can also tailor your degree to suit your interests by selecting your preferred major and various combinations of a second major, or a maximum of two minors. Choose from a range of majors including Anthropology, History, Human Resources Management, Politics and International Relations and Marketing for the Digital Age.

No matter what business major you select, you will be equipped for your future career through the Work Integrated Learning (WIL) component of the Bachelor of Business degree. In your second and third years of study, you will put your knowledge and skills to the test in real-world scenarios during short-term WIL experiences, which can include internships with an industry partner. Each of these experiences prepare you for your final-year placement within a local business, where your career development will have you ready to take on whatever your post-graduation career may hold.
