What to expect

As the modern business world continues to evolve with the influence of globalisation, technological advancements, and a growing focus on sustainability, managers are presented with new opportunities to become leaders of influence and drive positive change both within their organisations and in the world at large. Instead of simply overseeing day-to-day operations, managers now have the chance to innovate, adapt, and make a meaningful impact in their field.

If you're eager to foster positive change, motivate employees to achieve their full potential, and make a lasting impact in the business world, consider studying QUT’s Bachelor of Business (Management) course.

In this course, you will examine how individual differences impact people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviours in the workplace. By drawing on insights from various fields such as management, HR, psychology, behavioural economics, and sociology, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of how people work and how you can create a more fulfilling and successful workplace.

You will also develop your management and leadership capabilities using a wide variety of managerial tools to scan for opportunities and problems, create solutions, and monitor performance. From there, you will build your confidence in applying your management knowledge and toolkit by developing business plans and solutions for business performance and growth.

Expanding your skills beyond the classroom, you will have plenty of opportunities throughout your studies to take advantage of various programs and activities. These include hackathons, negotiation competitions, start-up weekends, pitch practice sessions, innovation challenges, international case competitions, workplace learning opportunities, blogging, and collaborative real-world projects with industry, community, government, and other disciplines.
