Faculty of Business INTRODUCTION Bachelor of Business and Business Majors in Combined Degrees The Bachelor of Business (BBus) degree has a flexible structure that allows a range of choices in study programs. In the BBus, the first year is common to all students (with a choice of two degree electives). Students then elect to specialise in a Major offered by the Faculty of Business. BBus students must complete the following requirements: A Major consisting of: " 2 Introductory units " 2 Intermediate units " 4 Advanced units A Linked Minor consisting of: " 2 Introductory units " 2 Intermediate units Plus 4 Degree Elective units as specified for each Major and Linked Minor combination. Plus 8 Student Elective units. These 8 units may be a second major from the Faculty of Business, or a major from another Faculty within the University of Tasmania. International students will need to apply through the International Services Office www.international.utas.edu.au English language skills will also need to be verified. You should ensure that as far as possible you undertake the units within your major in the order in which they are listed in this booklet. This will ensure that your studies are not delayed by either the requirements for prerequisites or the scheduling of units. The offering of each of the units in this booklet may be dependent on there being sufficient numbers enrolled at the relevant campus. This guide is designed to summarise the options available to you, and to provide a record for your use. We hope that it will become a valuable guide to assist you through your undergraduate studies within the Bachelor of Business. Please remember to bring this booklet with you whenever you are seeking course advice. 2

Your Degree Planner " Check the available units for your degree on the online UTAS Course and Unit handbook; " Use this planner to plan out the units you wish to study in your first year and; " Enrol online at the estudentcentre: www.studentcentre@utas.edu.au What are the requirements for my degree? You need to complete a major, a minor, 4 degree electives and 8 student electives, within the ranges below: Introductory level: A minimum of 8 and a maximum of 10 units Intermediate level: A minimum of 6 and a maximum of 10 units Advanced level: A minimum of 6 and a maximum of 10 units The unit levels in the major and minor are fixed (shown in the bottom row of the diagram on the inside back cover of this booklet). The flexibility in the levels is in the degree electives and particularly the student electives. What are student and degree electives? Student electives are your choice of unit, taken from any study area across the University, if you are eligible (ie: meet any pre-requisites), and within the unit requirements above. You can take up to a second major in another area, or another minor, and try out other subject areas - it's your choice. Degree electives are units chosen from the degree schedule at introductory and intermediate levels. In some degrees there may be a limited choice of units or required degree electives. See behind the back cover for rest of the Degree Planner 32
