Bachelor of Business Information Systems (BBIS)

The business environment has changed dramatically over the last decade through globalisation, an explosion in information and smart systems and global connectivity. The nature of information management has changed from that of creating systems from first principles to cloud based globalised systems that can handle and process vast amount of data ubiquitously. IS2010 states:

"IS professionals must design and implement information technology solutions that enhance organizational performance. Students must therefore:

• Possess skills in understanding and modelling organizational processes and data, defining and implementing technical and process solutions, managing projects, and integrating systems within and across organizations.
• Be fluent in techniques for acquiring, converting, transmitting, and storing data and information, including those related to data quality.
• Focus on the application of information technology in helping individuals, groups, and organizations achieve their goals within a competitive global environment."

The Bachelor of Business Information Systems was developed after an extensive research and consultation period to better understand the needs of business and industry and ensure that graduates will be well equipped to meet those needs. As part of the process the College held dialogue with a wide variety of individuals and business leaders, leading academics and professional bodies. The aim was to understand what skills, knowledge and capabilities are needed in the current business context, and those which will be essential in the emerging global economy in an era of transnational mobility.

As a graduate of this program you will gain:

• Analytical and problem solving skills
• Specific knowledge and expertise in business information systems
• Expertise in business, and project management
• Skills to participate in the planning, creation and delivery of business endeavours and initiatives
• Enhanced leadership, communication and presentation skills
• A sound understanding of dynamics of industry, government and global business
