Why choose us?

Business is now a global activity, and graduates seeking successful careers in business and commerce require not only knowledge of business principles and practices, but also skills such as critical thinking, leadership and a capacity to adapt to change.

We provide programs in which students learn about the fundamental areas of business as well as new methodologies and trends. Our programs place strong emphasis on employment-relevant skills as well as sustainability concepts and practices through our association with the United Nations Principles of Responsible Management Education. Our programs are continually revised to reflect changes in the business environment and international developments in business and commerce education.

We provide programs in:

  • Accounting
  • Business
  • Commerce
  • Management

Our staff have a strong international focus and a distinguished teaching capability. We are well known for our unique support for student learning. The School has a strong research profile which supports our academic programs. It is responsive to regional, national and international issues.

Our teaching and academic staff are committed to delivering student-centred high-quality learning and teaching experiences, that are closely linked to and reflect contemporary business needs and contexts. We provide supportive, flexible options for you to study at our campuses, or via online delivery, or a combination of campus-based and online study.
