Digital business is reshaped as new opportunities emerge, alongside a different set of constraints and concerns. For commercial practice, and society more broadly, new ways of working and the future of work in a digital era needs investigation and navigation. The 'Digital Business' major offers students a valuable platform for learning and research, and we are excited to collaborate with colleagues to enrich students educational experiences in this field.

If you want to help people achieve job satisfaction by supporting their workplace rights, then employment relations will give you skills to make a difference.

Our logistics and supply chain management program produces job-ready graduates trained in the industry's latest trends and technologies.

International Business is integral in our interconnected world, impacted by geopolitical shifts compounded by disruptive trends and grand challenges. We engage students' curiosity and encourage them to learn the links between disciplines to apply solutions to real-world business problems in the right context. Amid rising social injustice and income inequity, a key priority in research and teaching International Business is to promote a positive societal impact that equips students with the knowledge and skills to operate ethically, responsibly, and sustainably in the global business environment.

Lead any organisation to the top. Top managers think, act and make decisions differently. It’s these attributes that make a great leader and Griffith has them down to a fine art. We’ll teach you how to be innovative, challenge conventions and apply a forward-thinking mindset while you learn to lead and contribute to a prosperous, equitable and sustainable future.

In an era where companies are regularly named and shamed for environmental or human rights abuses, companies are recognising that sustainable business practices can help them reimagine the role of their business to not only satisfy consumers/stakeholders but also lead society. Purposeful business and sustainability have emerged as a framework for responsible business leadership to navigate future trends and demands of a changing world.
