Embarking on an international business degree program is a pivotal step towards a successful and rewarding career. Deakin University, Australia, in collaboration with the Asia Pacific Institute of Information Technology (APIIT) Sri Lanka, offers a unique 1+2 pathway to a prestigious Bachelor of Business degree.
This pathway starts with a year of study in the BSc (Honors) International Business Management degree at APIIT Sri Lanka. Upon completing the first year, students have the exciting opportunity to transfer to Deakin University, Australia, to complete their Bachelor of Commerce or Bachelor of Business degree.
The Bachelor of Business at Deakin is designed to equip students with general business skills and experience necessary to succeed in various sectors. Students can choose to major in People Management, Event Management, or Project Management, exploring emerging and innovative business trends while developing valuable soft skills crucial for personal development and career advancement.
One of the key benefits of this pathway is the ability to gain exemptions for 8 credit points (equivalent to 1 year of study) at Deakin, depending on the major chosen. This allows students to accelerate their degree completion and enter the workforce sooner, armed with a globally recognized qualification.
Deakin University also emphasizes practical experience, offering work placements in businesses and organizations both in Australia and overseas. Students who undertake placements and internships as part of their degree are highly sought after by employers, giving them a competitive edge in the job market.
