Welcome 2 Mission and Goals 4 Why Study at AIH Higher Education?
Bachelor of Accounting 10 Bachelor of Business 14 Bachelor of Business Information Systems
With over 15 years of experience in the tertiary sector encompassing the USA and Australia, I am honoured to be given this opportunity to academically lead and guide AIH Higher Education in providing a high quality educational experience to students. I do believe AIH Higher Education will offer students quality relevant accredited courses, backed by a formidable team of academics and industry experts who excel in their relevant fields. The Bachelor of Accounting and the Bachelor of Business are both developed with three things in mind: 1) industry linked courses, 2) education that will cater to each and every student and develop them to their fullest potential – personalised education, and 3) courses which are culturally responsive and therefore produce students who are globally and socially intelligent. AIH Higher Education believes that students should be and can be supported by lecturers who know each of them, in small classes not larger than 50 in each seminar. We believe students should understand governance, corporate social responsibility, and trends in the world around them. In other words, we would like to educate students to be responsible adults who understand the community around them to be useful citizens. Seamlessly woven into these industry and academic imperatives for both the Business and Accounting courses is personal and professional development. Students in a smaller class setting can develop their communication and generic skills. A trademark of AIH Higher Education will be mainstreaming communication so that students are challenged at consecutive levels, and in different areas. AIH Higher Education offers the ability to take students from where they are to where they will be challenged to their fullest potential. AIH Higher Education offers pathways and articulations from Diplomas and Advanced Diplomas in accordance with AQF requirements. Students come from all backgrounds of education and we respect that. Very simply AIH Higher Education believes in quality higher education. Students at AIH Higher Education will be choosing an education that offers unparalleled opportunities to excel in a supportive yet challenging environment.

Course Description The Bachelor of Business is designed to provide a broad general education relating to business management, which brings together the sub-disciplines of accounting and finance, operations, people and organisations and marketing and strategy. While the introductory units are each dedicated to one of these areas and collectively provide a balance of specialised treatments, the higher level units tend to provide a more integrated treatment of all areas in each unit. Some of the higher level units are generic to management, including those dealing with strategy and governance. Others develop a theme-based approach considering issues around globalisation and the internationalisation of business. These studies are designed to produce graduates who have effective and industry relevant knowledge and skills and who demonstrate capabilities for leadership in the business area. To achieve this aim the Bachelor of Business requires graduates to demonstrate both educational and professional outcomes.
