Course overview
A Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Communications double degree combines business and creativity and is designed to be taken over four years or the equivalent part-time. A combination of practical and theoretical components give students a holistic appreciation and understanding of the business environment while navigating and managing the ever-changing communications and media landscape.
As part of the Bachelor of Commerce, you will have the opportunity to major in various disciplines such as Accounting, Economics, Finance, Human Resource Management, Management, Marketing and Public Relations.
