University of Canberra - Canberra
This course lets students explore how social, economic and political factors help shape human action in modern society by developing a solid grounding in the social sciences.
Business, Government and Law (BGL) are the primary institutions that shape our world. Graduates from BGL courses gain a unique insight into the interrelationships and dependencies between these three areas in the context of their specific field of study and the three BGL signature themes of enterprise and innovation, social value and responsibility, and sustainability.
The course will see you investigate social policy reform matters from a distinctive perspective thanks to Canberra’s location as the centre of federal and ACT government socio-economic policy design, implementation and evaluation.
The course’s flexibility allows for a variety of subject areas and disciplines to be explored, including international relations and political science, as well as business, management, law and commerce. On top of analytical and critical thinking skills, you’ll gain experience in research and data analysis, providing you with practical abilities for a contemporary policy and analysis career.
Upon graduation, you’ll be ready for a range of roles which may include working within the government, private, not-for-profit or community sectors. Or if further learning is your preferred next step, you’ll be well-prepared to study a Bachelor of Philosophy (Honours).
