Mind your business and manage your future

Whether you're currently a manager, or wish to become one, the Bachelor of Business (Management) will help you gain a broad theoretical and technical knowledge in a range of core areas of business, plus the skills necessary to be effective in the changing context of work, organisations and business. You'll study how management underpins business operations in different settings and will develop innovative answers to problems facing businesses into the future.

The course will focus your oral and written communication skills through industry-based assignments that reflect real-world business scenarios. Throughout this applied degree, you'll analyse, review and investigate business problems to provide inventive solutions for private, public and not-for-profit enterprises. You'll graduate as an agile, multiskilled business professional with the transferable employability skills and creative abilities to succeed as a manager in whichever sector you choose to explore.

  • integrate theory and practice in management and articulate the impacts of recent developments within the field.
  • critically evaluate a range of core business skills to find solutions to future work challenges in legal, economic and global business environments.
  • analyse and apply a range of contemporary approaches to business innovation and organisational change.
  • develop experience in professional management of work and organisations, demonstrating creativity and initiative in new situations.
  • apply a range of ethical, socially responsible and sustainable solutions in a changing business environment.
  • reflect upon levels of personal autonomy and accountability associated with the decision-making process.
  • locate and evaluate a range of research frameworks and skills within management.
Work Integrated Learning

On campus

The Bachelor of Business (Management) integrates theory with real-world practice through UC's Work Integrated Learning (WIL) opportunities, designed to prepare students for their future careers. UC provides diverse WIL options, including industry case studies, guest speakers, internships, work placements, industry projects, competitions, exhibitions, study tours, virtual experiences and more.

You'll undertake hands-on management practice using both hypothetical and real-world scenarios, including the development of critical management plans and industry projects. Previous management students have undertaken internships across a range of sectors, with organisations including the Australian College of Nursing, Brumbies Rugby, Cooma Chamber of Commerce, UniLodge (UC), Careers UC, RDA Southern Inland, Goulburn Regional Conservatorium and Southern Tablelands Arts.

Online

Students who choose to study online can access virtual WIL opportunities. This content includes on-demand guest lectures, industry case studies and industry projects.

Internships and the International Business Study Tour options require either in-person placement hours in a business or on an overseas study tour and are not offered wholly online.

Students studying both face-to-face and online will have access to support services including Careers UC, who are available to assist with employment pathways and personal development.
