Top 3 Pros of a Business degree
#1: The student community
“学生俱乐部和社会促进了一个令人难以置信的机会，成为QUT的充满活力，多样化的学生社区的一部分,” Madison told us.
“Some of my fondest memories come from my time participating with club activities and executing a broad range of events. These experiences have allowed me toforge life-long friendships, share my passions with fellow student leaders and to be challenged to become the very best version of myself, as a student and leader,” she added.
Be sure to check out theQUT Business societies(there’s 12 different ones) because they are the best way toget involved on campus, meet new people and develop your academic/professional skills!
另一个退房是QUT Entrepreneurshipwho offera range of programs to help students reach their entrepreneurial potential!These programs also give you the chance to work with like-minded people who are passionate about what they do.
#2: Real world learning
现在，我们绝对是关于这一现实世界的学习，因为这意味着完成学位后，您已经在商业环境中具有实践经验！
“You can be confident that by completing a Business degree with QUT that you will have beenequipped with numerous experiences to engage in short term industry experiencesand you are able to confidently utilise your classroom knowledge to transition into your chosen professional career,” Madison said.
That’s the way to go — hands-on learning that sets you up for after uni!
#3: Professional development experiences
“The Business school is well recognised within the QUT community as going above and beyond to support the professional/personal development of every student,” Madison told us.
There are loads of different programs you can participate in todevelop and practice your skills, hear from people in the industry and even represent your university at an international level— now, that’s pretty cool!
Madison told us that “there is truly something for everyone“。
Make sure you check out theBusiness Advantage programwhich gives students the opportunity toparticipate in a variety of sessions that focus on leadership, preparation for employment, entrepreneurshipand more! These sessions really help prepare you for a job in the business world and life after university.
It’s also worth having a look at theBusiness Case Competitionswhere students who are selected represent their university at local and international levels as they solve various business problems!
Madison took part in the Australian undergraduate Business Case Competition when QUT were the hostsand told us:
“This program has helped todevelop my presentation skills, problem-solving ability, critical thinking, confidenceand helped to hone my ability to answer any line of questioning.”
商业学位的前三名缺点
#1: The degree flies by!
“The challenge with pursuing a single degree is thatyou are only at university for a limited time,” Madison said.
“It was bittersweet to graduate after three short years in December of 2020 and I would highly recommend making the most out of your time by通过学生俱乐部，交流机会，发展计划和实习沉浸在QUT社区中,” she told us.
是的，这是对的，a Bachelor of Business at QUT is only three years!And trust us, it will fly by so you really have to make the most of it from the start.
#2: Additional work
Now, this isn’t really a con but您应该为每个主题课堂外部做四个小时的额外工作！
所以，虽然联系时间非常灵活和可管理（每周12个小时），you can’t slack off and need to put the hours in during your own time!
#3: Class registration
Trying to get those classes you want at that specific time is always a challenge!
麦迪逊告诉我们它是especially challenging for first year students who log on and find that their classes are already fullbecause the best time slots go first!
So, she gave us some advice: “What I’ve found over the years is if you don’t get your ideal first option for classes, is tolog back on over the next couple of days and you can usually get the class you wantedor if that doesn’t work you can submit a class change request form.”
Any regrets?
When we asked Madison if she had any regrets, it was a simple answer: “None, whatsoever。“
Now, that really says something about the degree — pretty sweet, right?!
在开始在Qut的学士学位之前，你希望你知道什么？
Madison saidshe wished she had known how fast her time at uni would go!Three years really does fly by — you would be surprised.
“My advice would be to enjoy the moment, as there is truly never a better time to discover your passions and to become the best version of yourself,” she said.
What makes this degree different from the ones offered at other universities?
#1: Real-world assessments
“One of the unique aspects of the Business degree isthe emphasis on linking each assessment piece with real world outcomes that you can discuss with prospective employersand transfer into the workplace,” Madison said.
So,the assessments you do are actually really useful- 不仅仅是为了实践你所学到的东西，而且还要表明未来的雇主你所做的事情以及你能做什么！
“Some of my favourite experiences throughout the course includethe unique composition of assessments to include interaction with industry partners,” she told us.
In one subject calledMarketing Audience and Analytics,Madison worked in a team to develop an “integrated marketing communications plan for a local community organisation in the Brisbane region”. So, you’re actually out there in the real world, applying what you know and getting practical experience which you get assessed on!
Madison told us thatMarketing Planning and Managementwas “one of the most hands-on and memorable practical learning experiences“。
“This unit allowed us to design and sell our own business products，带我们通过观念的阶段到业务发展计划，到最终的市场日经验，“她解释道。
Throughout the process,Madison and her team got feedback and advice from guest lecturersworking in the industry and QUT Business alumni who have started their own businesses!
#2: The faculty
“我的讲师和导师一直很棒 -even though there are big class sizes you still feel valued and heard when you have concerns or questions,” Madison said.
“他们花时间访问和投资every student’s development, seeing us as more than just a number, and they are always eager to support us any way they can,” she explained.
麦迪逊也告诉我们many of the lecturers and tutors are still working in the industry so they can connect you with people and opportunities— plus their knowledge is very relevant and up-to-date!
＃3：他们对你很感兴趣！
Madison told us thatQUT put an “emphasis on developing each student’s potential, seeing us as individuals rather than a number, and having the ability to experience a unique composition of units and extra-curricular experiences that reflect my individual interests”.
So, you don’t just feel like another number at a university —they take interest in you and want to provide you with the best learning experiences and opportunities!
