About

The online Bachelor of Business degree features many of the attributes of the on-campus course although the capstone subjects are run in a way more suited to virtual teamwork.

From the outset, Swinburne's Bachelor of Business challenges you to be innovative, to make a positive social impact and, to be clear on how you can contribute as an individual and as part of a team in government, for-profit and for-purpose businesses.

Select a major area of specialisation and combine it with your core business studies to become an entrepreneurial thinker and business innovator.

Build up your CV with real industry experience while you study through our Work Integrated Learning programs, which are a guaranteed part of all our bachelor degrees and can include placements, internships or industry-linked projects.

In this degree's Industry Consulting Project (BUS30009), one of our industry partners will put forward a real problem. Finding solutions will require you to put what you've learned into practice. You'll team up with other students to analyse the issue and propose solutions back to your client.

Advanced Business Practice (BUS30024) teaches you to tackle problems and opportunities with holistic thinking. In this unit, you'll work as part of a multidisciplinary team to find innovative, creative, and practical business solutions, that also consider ethical business practices and sustainability goals.

Industry accreditation:

Graduates with an Accounting major may be eligible to apply for membership of CPA Australia (CPAA), Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CAANZ), the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) or the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA).
The Finance major is recognised by the CFA Institute University Affiliation program, ideal if you are interested in pursuing a career as a Chartered Financial Analyst.
The Financial Planning major* is accredited by FASEA - this is required if you want a career that includes providing financial advice to others.

*Undergraduate courses are awaiting confirmation of reaccreditation from Financial Advisors Standards (FAS), formally FASEA – 1 Feb 2022.

Upon successfully completing the Bachelor of Business, students will be able to:

define and integrate theoretical principles applicable to business and apply those principles in a range of practices
systematically review and critically evaluate research from a variety of sources in order to make informed judgements on options for innovatively solving a range of problems that arise in business contexts
formulate creative solutions that are fit for purpose and demonstrate cognisance of the impact of business decisions on the triple bottom line
coherently articulate a line of reasoning demonstrating cultural sensitivity and apply a framework to analyse and offer solutions to ethical dilemmas
communicate a range of business arguments by evaluating and implementing alternative communication strategies as appropriate to the audience
build on and continuously develop the intellectual independence to be critical and reflective learners, cognisant of new technologies
work collaboratively in diverse groups.
