BUENT3733 Entrepreneurial Business Planning
This course combines the entrepreneurship-based skills and managing innovation techniques to the next level, by developing an innovation-based business plan to set out the technical and commercial feasibility of an innovation. Establishing new ventures that are innovative within existing or new organisations is the aim of this course. It is a balanced combination of theory and practical experience. The course is constructed around the identification of a possible new venture that has significant elements of innovation. The focus is on some unique innovation developed by creative problem-solving processes. This innovation can be technical, strategic or service delivery in a business or in some social or public sector organization. The innovation needs to be first critically evaluated both technically and financially to ascertain its feasibility based on the available resources. This is followed by the development and presentation of an entrepreneurial business plan (EBP) for this new venture.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,663
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
