Are you an aspiring business leader?

In today’s globalised world where competition among businesses is at an all-time high, there are very few careers in which a comprehensive knowledge of business isn’t well-regarded. Those with strong leadership skills, as well as capabilities in marketing, management, human resources, business administration or entrepreneurship, are increasingly revered as key influencers in contemporary workplaces.

Macquarie University’s new Bachelor of Business – offered for the first time in 2024 – will introduce you to a broad range of foundation and future-focused business units that will equip you for the jobs of tomorrow in a wide range of industries. In addition to enhancing your leadership expertise, you’ll develop a valuable set of employability skills – strategic thinking, problem solving, communication, teamwork, and sustainable and ethical thinking – all of which are highly sought-after in today’s rapidly evolving global business landscape.
