Overview
You will gain advanced management knowledge and skills and will be able to make ethical decisions in a rapidly changing business environment driven by technological advances. In the first year of the Commerce (Distance Learning) degree from Stadio Higher Education the focus is on laying a solid foundation in the supporting areas of knowledge, namely mathematical concepts and principles, statistics, legal principles, and information technology. The core areas of economics and accounting are developed up to the second year of study, while the focus is on management, entrepreneurship, and research in the third year of study. If you choose one of the four elective majors, the third-year focus shifts to the chosen field of specialisation, while still covering strategic management, as well as the management of technology and innovation at the exit level.
Lastly, you will also get exposure to an introductory research module, as well as an extensive 25-credit Project in year 3 of your studies. The project will be informed by research and aims to integrate the understanding, knowledge, theory, and skills across the core areas of study.
