The course

Each double-degree program is designed to provide a broadly based business education together with a major study in one specialised area of business (accounting, banking and finance, international trade, management or marketing) and one specialised area of arts (foreign business languages - currently Chinese-Mandarin, or Japanese - available at the Peninsula campus only, English, politics, psychology or sociology). In addition, minor studies for the arts component are available in these disciplines and in philosophy and history (Caulfield and Peninsula campuses), labour studies (Caulfield campus only) and classical studies (Peninsula campus only). In the Bachelor of Arts, a minor sequence normally consists of a first-year-level sequence valued at 12 points followed by second-year-level subjects valued at not less than 16 points in an approved discipline. The major sequence is a minor sequence plus third-year-level subjects valued at not less than 16 points, plus an additional eight points taken at either the second or third-year level.
Candidates in these double degrees are required to meet the individual requirements of both the Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Business specialisation.
