Town and Gown Evenings
Our School proudly hosts the Town and Gown Evening in Semesters 1 and 2. This event offers students an excellent opportunity to network with economic and finance industry representatives from various sized organisations and gain an insight into what employers expect from graduate employees.
Students in their second and third years of the Bachelor of Business (Economics and/or Finance majors) and postgraduate finance students are invited to attend the evening. Students, please refer to the School's Blackboard Community page (please search for ECFIN) for current information.
Honours Information Evening
Are you considering further study after your undergraduate qualification, to gain a competitive edge for your future career?
If you are a high-performing student, then the Bachelor of Business (Honours) program may be what you are looking for.
A Faculty Honours Information Evening is held each semester. Details regarding the Faculty event can be directed to the Faculty of Business's Research Support Office.
