Bachelor of Business (Entrepreneurship and Innovation)

This course aims to provide students with the skills needed to succeed in either a start-up environment or within an organisation embarking on significant change. Students will investigate business behaviour, such as creativity, risk taking and sustainability, in a range of contexts and environments, and will develop a solid grounding in business theory.

Business, Government and Law (BGL) are the primary institutions that shape our world. Graduates from BGL courses gain a unique insight into the interrelationships and dependencies between these three areas in the context of their specific field of study and the three BGL signature themes of enterprise and innovation, social value and responsibility, and sustainability.

The course provides a strong base of critical and creative thinking and cognitive flexibility for problem solving, and you’ll study topics including management, government and business relations, as well as the impact of strategy, leadership, marketing, cultural, workforce issues, commercialisation and globalisation on business. At the conclusion of the course, you’ll have acquired solid communication, collaborative and co-production skills which will allow you to develop and manage networks, operate with integrity in an ethical manner and lead business and innovation projects with confidence.
