Handbook

The Bachelor of Business is offered in conjunction and concurrently with the TAFE Advanced Diploma in Event Management. Students gain practical, vocational workplace skills and knowledge in the area of event management through successful completion of the Advanced Diploma, together with a broader conceptual base that covers the principal areas of business necessary for senior level management. Large events and festivals-from charity fundraisers to concerts-form part of a multimillion-dollar worldwide industry. Event Management is the special branch of management that focuses on using managerial techniques to organise and run these events. This degree is designed for students who would like to undertake a degree in the principal areas of business. It is suitable preparation for students who would like to become professionals in a particular discipline or want to pursue a general career in business. Students will undertake a foundation year that covers all core disciplines of business, providing a solid understanding of issues facing organisations today. Students will select at least one major study and undertake a final-year capstone subject to apply what they have learned in collaboration with students from other disciplines.
