Macquarie uni has

Business Admin (international studies) which offers a semester overseas

macq also has Bachelor of International Business, which looks pretty diverse but doesnt offer exchange in its program

UTS has Business/arts in international studies which offers 1 year overseas.

... what will u be placing in ur preferences?

Im applying for macq's Bachelor of International Business

Yay! I LOVE threads in the tertiary forum with the words 'best uni...' in them. They always turn out to be so productive and original.

I heard UTS is quite good~ and I agree with little rat boi, there are good job prospects, especially if you are able to speak the language, understand the culture, and combine the knowledge with business skills. One of my friends used this as one of his strong points in job interviews~

He's right, a simple exchange is just, if not more, valuable than an actual international business degree/major.

In regards to the original post however, UNSW has by far the most elite business exchange school options (at least in the USA). Other unis do have good and solid exchange links to many countries, however UNSW seems to have more of the very top unis.

This is why I stated UNSW originally.
Yeah UNSW exchange program is definitely the most prestigious. In US they got heaps of to tier including berkeley, ucla, wharton (which is ivy league) and nyu.

But wouldn't UNSW's exchange opportunites with Wharton, Berkeley etc only be available for a very select number of students, like HD avg?

I think the govt gives something like $6million to help fund international exchange in Australian universities. $4million out of the $6million is received by Macquarie.

Yay! I love it when sarcasm translates across the internet.

The links UTS has are pretty limitted, you'd be better off with usyd, unsw or anu, uni's with better international links

If people are keen on a specific country/language then you should also consider at Macquarie:

BBA/BA - European Studies or
BBA/BA - Japanese Studies

Can anybody answer the question as to Which university is best for International Business and offers Part Time @ Night?... I heard UTS is the best for people interested in IB as a second major, but does anyone have anything to add?

(EDIT: PT @ Night is offered at UNSW B Comm, UTS B Business, Mac B Commerce)

I really don't get international business degrees. I can, however, understand taking a Business/Commerce/Eco degree with an IBUS major. You can't really just practise international business without some other core skill set.
For example, I would want to be a marketer for international business. So I take (for instance)
B Commerce (Majoring in marketing and international business).
B IBUS just sounds too tacky and general.
