The BA (Hons) Business Studies program provides each student with comprehensive knowledge and understanding of modern business studies subjects and establishes a firm foundation for the development of a career in the business profession.

The program is structured in a way that provides each student with the opportunity to study for either a general or a specialist Honours degree in Business Studies. The program offers students the choice of four options for the completion of their Honours Degree.

These Pathway study options are:

  • Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Business Studies – ( without specialism )
  • Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Business Studies – (with Accounting and Finance specialism)
  • Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Business Studies – (with Marketing specialism)
  • Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Business Studies – (with Management – Human Resource Management specialism)

Importantly each student has the opportunity to emphasise their choice of study as they progress from the first to the second and to the third year of studies. Individuals, therefore, have great flexibility in their choice of business studies subjects and in planning the development of their own individual undergraduate business education.

As they progress through the program each student is able to make informed decisions about their growing personal areas of business interest and business expertise and is able to match these to their selection of business studies subjects and to their professional career intentions.

Additional Pathways of specialist study are being regularly added to the program framework in order to meet the future needs of different types of business organizations and the particular career needs of our students.

Protection of Enrolled Learners

Independent College has the approval to offer students learner protection insurance. Learner Protection insurance is only in place when each student receives their Insurance Policy.’ Each learner should ensure that they receive a Learner Protection Insurance Policy in their name. Learner Protection insurance is provided by O’Driscoll O’Neil and underwritten by Hiscox Insurance Company Limited. The learner protection policy provides for a refund of fees as specified in the 2012 Act. In some circumstances, it may be possible for a learner to transfer to a similar program in another provider. In such circumstances, the learner may opt to receive the cost of an alternative similar academic program. Transferring to another program is always only a second option. The learner protection insurance policy is governed by s. 65(4)(b) of the 2012 Act.’
