In this double degree students complete the requirements for two separate degrees in four and a half years. The course consists of units in business and education.

In the Bachelor of Education component students are prepared as teachers with specialist understandings for secondary school learners in two subject discipline areas, with one related to your business major, for example, accounting, economics, or business. For the other teaching area you can choose one of:

English
geography
history or
mathematics.

In the Bachelor of Education component you will learn to innovate and incorporate digital technologies in your teaching. You will be equipped with entrepreneurial thinking and leadership skills and develop the resilience and creative capabilities to adapt to ongoing workforce changes and future opportunities.

The Bachelor of Business is designed to produce graduates with the knowledge, skills and experiences for success in a broad range of contexts in general and specific fields of business. The course provides students with a strong theoretical and practical underpinning in the key disciplines, functions, principles and practices of business across national and international business environments with depth and specialisation in a discipline. The curriculum is responsive to industry needs, providing students with contemporary knowledge and skills that are highly relevant to industry.
