Leading to: Bachelor of Commerce
This is a flexible course designed to help you reach your potential and gain in-depth knowledge and skills of one or more areas of business. You will develop decision-making and leadership skills, which are essential in a future marketplace and benefit from exposure to industry through field trips, internships, work-related tasks, guest lectures and networking events.


Major: Economics
Economists study the world around them, analyse shifts in global policy and monitor industry and global trends. They are an integral part of public and private sector decision-making.

With a focus on applied economics, this major will give you the knowledge and skills you need to analyse important real-world issues, such as unemployment, inequality, price stability and economic growth.

You will be able to use your economic knowledge to evaluate trends and patterns in consumer spending, levels of competition in different industries, business cycles and financial crises.

You’ll gain a solid foundation in macroeconomics and microeconomics, as well as quantitative and qualitative skills you need to apply theory to practice.


What you'll learn

  • Apply knowledge of economic models, data and methods to complex economic and social issues and identify innovative solutions that are relevant to affected communities
  • Communicate professionally, and in ways that are responsible and appropriate given the economic local, national and/or international context
  • Use relevant technologies and methodologies to investigate economic and social issues in ways that demonstrate critical thinking and responsible judgement
  • Demonstrate an understanding of cultural diversity and how this both affects economic and social behaviour and informs respectful and responsible professional practice
  • Demonstrate industry readiness through the development of sound practical economic analyses, and critical reflection of individual capabilities and current, emerging and future local and global challenge
