Create your unique career path whilst honing your communication skills as part of your commerce specialisations. 

It starts with four critical foundation units – Managing People and Organisations; Introduction to Accounting or Money Matters; Working with Technology, and Managing Markets – preparing you for whatever area of business you wish to pursue. 

ACU has built in the ‘Future Ready’ 3-year structured program (designed with Industry) and Excel Microsoft certifications which are highly valued in the marketplace. 

Study commerce, and you can tailor your degree to open up career opportunities in accounting, marketing, business data analytics and human resources. 

Other specialisations include entrepreneurship, international business, occupational health, safety, and the environment. 

ACU knows that practical experience is essential for you, so it’s crucial for ACU. 

The work integrated learning programs prepare you for the future world of work and build your employability skills, foster an entrepreneurial mindset and hone your communication and project management skills. 

ACU does this through on-the-job work placements and projects, participating in simulations, international study tours, or attending industry guest lectures and networking events. 

Professional experience

The Work Integrated Learning (WIL) programs give you essential job-ready skills and experiences throughout your degree. 

During a community engagement placement, you’ll spend 35 hours volunteering with a not-for-profit organisation to gain a deeper understanding of the contributions of social enterprises. 

Then, with your professional experience placement, you’ll bridge the gap between academic studies and the real world of work by completing 105 work experiences in organisations from accounting, finance, marketing, management, event management, and human resources to IT. 

The industry partnerships and connections ensure you are ready for any career path.
