Customs and border management is central to a country's economy, trade agreements and national security. And with greater scrutiny of border management, and the current terrorism climate, it's never been more important to have highly trained and specialised customs and border security professionals. This online Bachelor of Border Management course from Charles Sturt University has been designed to give you the training needed to work in this expanding field.
The course has been designed in consultation with government departments, international agencies and industry leading bodies such as the World Customs Organisation (WCO). The program of study addresses fundamental aspects of customs and border management, and covers essentials such as trade regulations, customs procedures, tariff classifications, trade treaties and differences between processing sea and air passengers.
Students will also learn about the ethics and governance surrounding border management, and will be able to pursue areas of interest through the broad range of electives on offer. Some electives include transnational crime, cargo control and maritime regulation, and students will also be able to select units offered by CSU's Australian Graduate School of Policing and Security (AGSPS) and School of Policing Studies (SOPS).
Students will also need to complete three electives based upon the list of units offered by the Australian Graduate School of Policing and Security (AGSPS), and School of Policing Studies (SOPS).
