About this program

The Bachelor of Public Health Bachelor of Business at the University of Technology Sydney is a four-year double degree designed for students seeking an interdisciplinary career at the intersection of public health and business sectors in Australia. This comprehensive program enables students to develop a deep understanding of health promotion, epidemiology, and disease prevention, while simultaneously gaining essential business acumen in areas such as management, marketing, and economics.

The curriculum is structured across eight semesters (four years) and consists of integrated units of study from both disciplines, with each unit contributing towards the required number of credit points for graduation. Students undertake foundational subjects in health science and core business units, along with opportunities for specialisation through elective units. The program also incorporates work-integrated learning, allowing students to engage in professional placements or internships relevant to public health and business environments. This hands-on component ensures graduates are prepared for the demands of contemporary Australian workplaces.

Throughout the course, students gain valuable skills in critical thinking, data analysis, project management, and strategic planning, alongside communication and leadership skills tailored to health and business contexts. The combination of public health expertise and business savvy prepares graduates to address complex health challenges, manage healthcare organisations, and contribute to sustainable health policy and practice from a business perspective.

This program suits students who aspire to take on diverse roles in both the public and private sectors, including those interested in health program management, consultancy, health policy, corporate social responsibility, and organisational leadership. It is an ideal pathway for individuals wishing to combine a passion for community wellbeing with business innovation. Students are also reminded to review the official UTS and CRICOS pages for detailed unit requirements and application information.
