OVERVIEWBusiness is QUT's largest faculty, attracting over a quar-ter of the University's enrolments, and is also one of the largest business faculties in Australia.
Through various collaborations with industry and profes-sional bodies, we are a key player in the business com-munity with extensive local and international links.
We are the first business school in Australia to have our business courses accredited by the three leading interna-tional bodies – EQUIS (the accrediting body of the Euro-pean Foundation of Management Development), AACSB International (The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools in Business) and AMBA (the Association of MBAs). This 'triple crown' of international accreditation means your QUT business degree is even better recog-nised by employers globally.
We know what employers want in today's business graduates - because we ask them. We regularly involve representatives from the business community in the de-velopment and review of our courses. And we employ part-time lecturers and tutors currently working in busi-ness.
As a student, you will be encouraged to undertake real-world projects to help you develop your own strong links. And you can take advantage of our extensive exchange program and our international study tour options.
This strong practical component of our courses is com-plemented by our academic excellence. The diversity of interests, experiences, and expertise of our locally and internationally drawn academic staff creates a rich learn-ing and research environment.
Our innovative 'Business Advantage' program develops business graduates who can contribute effectively as citizens, as leaders in the wider community, and as com-petent professionals within their chosen disciplines. A variety of short programs provide skills in areas such as leadership, teamwork, public speaking and entrepreneur-ship. The program also provides the opportunity to work with other students on community projects, development programs, and participate in conferences and seminars.
As a QUT business graduate you will enter the business community with the acumen and entrepreneurial skills needed to turn any good idea into a successful enterprise within today's competitive international environment. And you will be able to anticipate the business challenges and opportunities of the future.
Undergraduate We recognise that in the ever-changing world of business you need a solid foundation in business principles along with the flexibility to pursue studies in multiple areas. Our Bachelor of Business includes eight core units which will equip you with generic skills and competencies for to-day's business environment. You also have the opportu-nity to tailor your studies to suit your own needs and ca-reer aspirations. Students enrolling at our Gardens Point campus will choose a major from:
� Accountancy � Advertising � Banking & Finance � Economics � Electronic Business � Human Resource Management � International Business
� Management � Marketing � Public Relations.
You will then choose other business study areas to steer your future career direction. You can:
� maximise your career options with an added breadth of knowledge by completing another of the business majors
� add a depth of knowledge in your area of interest by extending your studies within the primary business major
� add a flavour or emphasis to your degree with study in another of our business areas.
You will also choose elective units from Business or other faculties within QUT. We encourage you to consider util-ising these electives to complete an approved University minor. Double degrees are also a popular option. A num-ber of combinations are available, giving you expanded career options and a competitive edge on graduation.
The Bachelor of Business is also available at the Cabool-ture campus, with majors in marketing, management, and a minor in small business management.
Our First Year Program at Carseldine campus allows you to commence study before choosing your business major. At the end of your first year you'll move into your major of choice at our Gardens Point or Caboolture campus.
PostgraduateThere are many reasons for considering postgraduate study. Whether you're looking for career advancement, a change in career direction, personal development, or research opportunities we can help you with postgraduate studies to suit your needs. Choose from:
� Honours � Graduate Certificate � Masters (Coursework & Research) � MBA � PhD.
Coursework Programs Our postgraduate programs allow you to enhance your career options by building on existing qualifications, or change careers through study in a different field. For non-degree holders, we offer alternative pathways that build on your work experience.
QUT’s Master of Business offers students the choice of a wide variety of majors, which are designed to provide specialist knowledge in your chosen business discipline. With enhanced knowledge you can advance your busi-ness career, or change career direction.
� Accounting � Strategic Advertising � Applied Finance � Business Administration (MBA) � Event Marketing and Management � Human Resource Management � Integrated Marketing Communication � International Business � Marketing � Philanthropy & Nonprofit studies � Professional Accounting � Public Management � Public Relations.

Innovative MBA Programs We also offer one of Australia's most innovative MBAs, giving you greater choice and flexibility when designing your course. With shorter, sharper units, you'll cover a wide range of core units and have a greater choice of electives. This opportunity for greater depth and diversity of knowledge gives you a distinct career advantage.
The MBA is available in a variety of delivery options in-cluding our International MBA, which allows students to complete one semester of study overseas. Our Executive MBA is a tailored program for more experienced manag-ers offered in an intensive, flexibly delivered format.
Our MBA was one of three Australian MBAs to be recog-nised in the 'Top 100 MBAs of 2004' in the Financial Times, and in 2005 was ranked as a 'top tier' Australian MBA program by the BOSS magazine from the Australian Financial Review.
Extensive Research Opportunities As well as being highly respected for the quality of our postgraduate coursework teaching, the Faculty also pro-vides extensive research opportunities.
Our researchers engage in collaborative, cross discipli-nary research that impacts on the domestic and interna-tional business communities. The Australian Centre for Business Research, housed within the Business Faculty, links QUT's business research strengths to solving indus-try, government and community problems.
We also offer professional development programs, and contract research and consultancy services. And because we believe in giving something back to the community, our staff - individually and in groups - engage in a wide range of community service activities.
We are a business faculty for the real world.
