Studying International Business at UNSW

International Business is offered as an undergraduate major by the Australian School of Business (www.business.unsw.edu.au) for students enrolled in commerce, economics, arts or social sciences degrees. The International Business major is designed for students who are interested in business in the global environment and particularly complements studies in Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, Marketing or Modern Languages.

Students with above average grades in their International Business courses are invited to join the Honours Program, requiring an additional year of study. An Honours year adds extra value to an undergraduate degree and is highly regarded by employers.
