Combined Bachelor’s of Economics and Commerce

Why study this course?

In a competitive employment market, you’ll maximise your career options by developing a thorough grounding in economic theory and practice along with strong business and commercial skills.

Coupled with this breadth of knowledge, you’ll gain valuable practical skills either by way of undertaking an internship with a private or public organisation, or through an industry-based project unit in your final year. You’ll also get to experience our world-class Trading Room, using software and technology found in most modern financial institutions.

You’ll graduate with two qualifications, having cut two years off the time it takes you to study two degrees. If you decide either degree isn't right for you, you can exit one and complete the other.
