Handbook

This is the first course in the Integrated First Year of the Bachelor of Commerce and offers students an introduction to business decision-making. Students learn about economic, corporate responsibility and legal principles to understand what organisational actors need to consider and what actions they might take. Fundamental economic principles inform decision-makers to ask and answer questions about how the economy works, and how these principles influence the decisions that individuals and organisations make. Core legal principles guide decision-makers to protect value for owners and other stakeholders, and to protect both managers and organisations from public and private legal actions arising from their decisions.  Corporate sustainability principles direct decision-makers to meet the organisation’s responsibilities to a range of stakeholders.
