Business for good...

The Bachelor of Business prepares you for a business career with a strong ethical and faith framework.

The structure of the BBus is designed to provide you with foundational business theory and skills, and allows you to develop extended knowledge in an area of specialisation by majoring in either Leadership, Human Resource Management, or Marketing. For specific information about subjects in each of these three major specialisations, please see the BBus award description page.

Our BBus faculty are well qualified and experienced professionals. Each bring a wealth of knowledge and practical insight in their specialised field, and collectively we are committed to providing you the skills, acumen and ethical framework for a successful business career.

As a BBus graduate, you will be prepared to work in a variety of settings - from small business and community organisations to multinational companies and large scale industries. You will be well equipped to for employment in a range of job positions, leading towards professions such as front-line to senior manager, sales & marketing executive, marketing manager, project manager, human resources manager, industrial relations officer, business development manager, customer relations/account manager, communications/PR executive, business entrepreneur, consultant, and much more. As a BBus graduate, you can also continue to postgraduate studies in Masters and Doctoral programs.

Recognising the need for flexibility, subjects in our BBus program are delivered through both face-to-face classes at the Parramatta Campus and Online classes via the Global Online Campus. There are also a variety of ways our classes are presented - through weekly lectures, week-long lecture blocks (intensives), night time lectures, online audio/video podcasts, or a combination of modes. Such a flexible design will ensure that you are able to tailor the BBus to your own learning style, as well as enable you to balance studies with your other commitments.

It is with great anticipation that I welcome you into the BBus.
