This component introduces core areas such as management, marketing, finance, and business analytics. It helps students understand how different business functions interact in an organisation and supports informed decision-making. Importantly, this phase also allows students to explore various fields within business before selecting a major, helping them make well-informed choices about their academic and career paths.The business administration listed major provides focused, in-depth study in a particular area of business. This could include disciplines such as marketing, management, business analytics or finance.

It also enhances their ability to think critically and solve complex business problems, preparing them for leadership and specialist roles.Free elective study gives students the flexibility to broaden their education further. They may choose to deepen their expertise in their major, take up a second business major or minor, or explore subjects outside the business faculty.
