Description

This course is the first of three, comprising the Integrating Core in the BBus degree. The Integrating Core courses aim to systematically develop the questioning, thinking, problem solving and decision making skills that are required for success in business environments. In this course, students learn how to locate and critically analyse information, how to frame and analyse decisions, how to express themselves effectively in writing, and develop a basic competence in quantitative decision analysis. Students also learn how to identify and rectify ineffective decision making practices of individuals, groups and organisations. The course has a particular focus on developing Graduate Attributes and intellectual skills which may be applied to enhance understanding and performance in other courses in the degree. Students work together on some assignments to develop team skills.
