Bachelor of Business
Avondale University, Cooranbong, NSW, Australia
About this program
The Bachelor of Business at Avondale is a 24-unit degree structured around double majors rather than a single specialisation. Most students pair accounting with a second area (marketing, HR, or business administration) or take a major-and-minor combination, and the accounting major itself carries accreditation from both CPA Australia and Chartered Accountants ANZ, which matters if the end goal is a CA or CPA designation later.
The smaller cohort size compared to a metropolitan business school shows up in practice: internship placements are built into the course rather than bolted on as an optional extra, and Avondale's business faculty draws on its Sydney campus location (Wahroonga) for placements with businesses and Adventist-affiliated organisations across Sydney's north. Christian Studies core units run alongside the standard business core, including accounting, economics, management, marketing, and law, reflecting the university's integration of faith and vocation rather than treating them as separate tracks.
