Summary

Interested in business? Start your university studies with our Diploma in Business to explore different business subjects and prepare yourself for further study.

If you’re not entirely sure what to expect from uni or from studying business, or missed out on getting into your dream degree, the Diploma in Business is a great place to start.

You’ll take the same courses as our first-year bachelor’s degree students, and study in a supportive environment with additional academic and student support. Once you’ve completed your diploma you can then move into Year 2 of the Bachelor of Business, which means you can still complete your chosen bachelor’s degree in three years.
