The Bachelor of Health Sciences (Health Management)/Bachelor of Business (Human Resource Management) at Flinders University is a combined undergraduate degree delivered in Adelaide. Across four years of full-time study, this double degree blends health sector insights with business acumen, equipping students with a comprehensive skill set tailored for modern healthcare and business environments in Australia. The curriculum is organised into structured units of study, each carrying credit points that contribute toward the total requirements for graduation. Students generally progress through foundational, intermediate, and advanced units, culminating in a capstone experience that draws together both fields.
This double degree enables students to study contemporary health management strategies alongside core principles of human resource management. You’ll cover areas such as health policy, resource planning, organisational behaviour, workforce development, and leadership within healthcare contexts. The programme is designed to develop practical skills in team leadership, effective communication, legal and ethical frameworks, and the administration of diverse workforces. Industry-focused coursework ensures you are ready to navigate both public health organisations and business enterprises.
Interactive learning is emphasised, with opportunities for work-integrated learning and professional placement highly encouraged in both disciplines. These placements allow students to gain hands-on experience within Australian health services, hospitals, and business sectors, making valuable industry connections. Students graduate with a strong understanding of the links between workforce management and the unique demands of the healthcare sector, preparing them for leadership roles in a rapidly evolving field.
The double degree is suited to those with an interest in improving health outcomes through effective management, people interested in business careers with a health focus, and anyone aspiring to leadership positions in healthcare administration or human resource management. Completing this qualification also makes you eligible for the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) post-study work stream. While studying, international students can work up to 48 hours per fortnight, supporting valuable Australian workplace experience. Refer to the official Flinders University page for precise unit lists, progression, and admission requirements.
