Digital technologies aren’t just influencing the business landscape – they’re transforming it entirely. To keep up with the pace of this change, organisations of all shapes and sizes are calling on the expertise of bright minds who consider business through a distinctly digital lens. This specialist degree will equip you with the in-depth understanding to apply this perspective.

The Bachelor of Digital Business prepares business leaders for digital transformation with a focus on digital technology applications in business management. You’ll gain practical, real-world experience with industry partners and learn how to use emerging technologies like artificial intelligence in ways that positively impact both business and society – all while developing prized knowledge and skills in cybersecurity and big data.

The course develops through the themes of specialist discipline knowledge, additional discipline knowledge, and in addition includes elective study.

With an emphasis on decision-making and the management of digitalisation within organisations, you will be proficient in utilising your extensive knowledge of digital business to formulate solutions for business challenges.

These additional units will allow you to delve deeper into areas of interest. The units present an avenue for you to enhance your expertise and understanding within a distinct functional domain, thus providing a comprehensive insight into the implementation of digitalisation tailored to specific business functions. Some units are highly immersive and offer you the opportunity to leverage digital skills to address societal or business problems.

Part C. Free elective study
These are free electives which will enable you to further your knowledge of digital business, or business more broadly, or to select units from across the University in which you are eligible to enrol.
