View Honours Handbook

UQBS offers two world class honours programs, the Bachelor of Business Management (Honours) and the Bachelor of Commerce (Honours).

The honours program is an optional fourth year of study for high-achieving students.

An honours year helps you expand your knowledge in a particular area of study in business, and makes you more distinctive around the skills you can offer to potential employers.

As an honours student, you will find yourself in a stimulating environment. You will have the benefits of small classes and highly interactive discussions with fellow students and lecturers. You get to know your fellow students and your lecturers in a way that is not possible in undergraduate classes.
