Course code: 2563
This course complements the Bachelor of Business and Electronic Commerce
offered at the Gippsland campus and by distance education, but it has a greater
focus on the development of systems, as opposed to their management.
Nevertheless, the degree retains a strong business emphasis. The
cross-disciplinary approach reflects the view that electronic commerce requires
the integration of people, processes and systems via the enabling information
technologies.
Satisfactory completion of the VCE, with a study score of at least 25 in English units 3 and 4, plus any two units from General Mathematics and Mathematical Methods at units 1 and 2 level.
Applicants may also satisfy entrance requirements on the basis of qualifications deemed to be the equivalent of the above VCE. TAFE qualifications (eg the first year of a TAFE associate diploma or a TAFE qualification that satisfies the first year of a TAFE associate diploma) or comparable Year 12 qualifications, including International Baccalaureate or approved tertiary-level study completed in Victoria, other states of Australia or overseas, may satisfy entry requirements.
Students who have not successfully completed VCE or equivalent may satisfy entry requirements by completing at least two Monash non-award single subjects or open learning (OLA) subjects. Further information is contained in the booklet 'Returning to study at Monash', which is available from the Prospective Students Office, telephone (03) 9905 1320.
Fees will depend upon the student's residency status. Local residents will be liable for either the fees set by the government under the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) or for full tuition fees as determined by the university.

Students entering the course with appropriate previous tertiary study may be eligible for some advanced standing. Some electronic commerce subjects offered in the Bachelor of Business and Electronic Commerce may be credited to the Bachelor of Electronic Commerce.
This course is offered to full-time students at the Berwick campus.
The course will normally take three years of full-time study.
