Bachelor of Business (Financial Planning)

The Bachelor of Business at UOW is structured to provide students with both a solid theoretical foundation and opportunities for applied learning, ensuring they graduate with skills that are directly relevant to professional practice. The program develops a broad understanding of essential business functions while advancing students’ analytical, managerial, and strategic decision-making capabilities required for effective performance in complex organisational contexts.

In the first year, students complete subjects across all major areas of business, enabling them to build a comprehensive understanding of contemporary organisational challenges within a globalised economy. As their studies progress, students may elect to specialise in Financial Planning, a pathway designed to equip graduates with the knowledge and professional competencies necessary for advising individuals and organisations on wealth management, investment strategies, superannuation, taxation, and retirement planning. This major prepares students for careers as financial planners, wealth advisors, and consultants, with opportunities spanning the banking, insurance, investment, and financial services sectors. For those who choose not to pursue a specific major, the program offers a range of advanced-level business subjects that encourage cross-disciplinary expertise and adaptability across diverse professional environments.
