Diploma of Business (Management)

The Diploma of Business (Management) is embedded in the Bachelor and Associate Degree of Business (Management) and has been designed as both an exit qualification and a pathway into the Bachelor qualification. The overall aim of the Diploma of Business (Management) is to provide a flexible, student-centred and academically rigorous course of study, which seeks to further develop students’ business administration and management skills and competencies and give them a solid foundation for further study in the undergraduate level. This course provides students with undergraduate level of knowledge, competencies and values necessary for a fulfilling career in various areas of business administration and management. For this reason, students are required to undertake six core units which includes Academic Skills for Success; Marketing Foundations; Business Communication and Stakeholder Management; Accounting for Managers; Principles of Management and Organisations; and Foundations of Information Technology. These core units are enhanced by two specialised management units of Service Management and Introduction to Global Business.
