Macquarie University
Bachelor of Business (Business Administration)
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationToday’s increasingly competitive world requires administrators who are leaders, strategic thinkers, creative problem solvers and disruptors. The best business administrators are equally talented at managing numbers as they are at managing people – they’re as skilled at developing solutions to organisational challenges as they are at shaping organisational culture across ever more diverse workforces.
The Business Administration major will expose you to key business administration concepts and principles, and teach you how to apply them to a range of business contexts. It will foster your skills and talent in areas such as business forecasting, ethics, law, negotiation, organisational behaviour, and sustainable and strategic management. And it will help you develop your communication and teamwork skills, as well as your self-awareness.
