About

This course aims to produce highly competent, work-ready graduates with in-depth discipline knowledge, and the professional and technical skills to work as socially responsible economists in the private and public sectors.

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.

You’ll become well-versed in subject areas including microeconomics, macroeconomics, international trade theory and econometrics.

You’ll also engage in a range of authentic, Work Integrated Learning (WIL) opportunities with the aim of developing your professional practice in the areas of communication, judgement and cross-cultural teamwork. Upon graduation, you’ll possess a thorough knowledge of business economics, along with a solid background in commerce, and will be well-placed for a bright future in a professional business environment.
