Transform ideas into impact
At Curtin, our business degrees are as innovative as the industries you’ll work in. Tailor your studies to suit your unique interests and passions, and graduate with an internationally recognised skillset. Additionally, you’ll study at the Curtin Business School, WA’s top-ranked business school in the Eduniversal ‘Palmes of Excellence’ league (2024).
A career in business and innovation offers opportunities for growth. It’s a chance to lead change, think creatively and contribute towards a more equitable and sustainable society.
Business is no longer the exclusive realm of big banks and brokerage firms – today’s commerce graduates can be found making a difference in a range of areas – they’re supporting women experiencing homelessness, revitalising Perth’s food and bar scene and building sustainable skin care brands.

Hear from our graduates
Being able to provide our clients the clarity they need as they begin their wealth journey, or their transition to retirement, is by far the most rewarding part of being an adviser. It’s satisfying to know that I have played a role in their life.

#4 in Australia
Curtin is ranked 4th in Australia for Hospitality and Tourism Management.
The Accounting major taught me, broadly, how to understand and apply financial information. The Tax major then expanded on these teachings and proceeded to add an incredible amount of law to the mix.
