The Tasmanian School of Business and Economics (TSBE), formerly known as the Faculty of Business, was founded in 1890 and first offered degrees in Economics [1] and is the business and economics school of the University of Tasmania. It offers the undergraduate Bachelor of Business and Bachelor of Economics degrees, as well as postgraduate degrees and a Master of Business Administration program. The School is also associated with the Australian Innovation Research Centre, as well as the Australian Institute of Health Service Management.[2]

History[]

The School was established in 1919 as the Faculty of Commerce offering Accounting and Corporate Governance education as a three-year Certificate and the Bachelor of Commerce, a four-year degree equivalent to an honours degree. Economic Geography and Economic History was later introduced as first-year year-long subjects. In 1949 the Bachelor of Economics was introduced alongside the Bachelor of Commerce, and Econometrics introduced as a third-year full year subject. In a short period of time in the 1990s, Tasmanian School of Business & Economics and a part of the College of Arts & Law were a single organisation as the Faculty of Commerce and Law. In 1997 the Faculty of Commerce creates three schools: Economics, Accounting and Finance and Management and in the early 2000 a finance major was introduced to the BBus and BEc degrees. In 2013 the three schools merged within the Faculty of Business to become the Tasmanian School of Business and Economics.[3]

Faculty and services[]

In addition to its academic programme, the school has several co-curricular activities including corporate internships for its undergraduate students.[4]

The Tasmanian School of Business and Economics and the Australian Maritime College conduct Maritime and Logistics Management courses including the Bachelor of Business and Master of Business Administration programs.[5]
