Course structure*

All first, second and third-year subjects offered by the Faculty of Business and Economics have a credit value of six points. Full-time students are expected to progress at the rate of eight subjects or 48 credit points per year. First-year students normally may not take a second-year subject until at least four first-year subjects have been completed successfully. It should be noted that subjects in the later years of the course have prerequisites and corequisites. In addition, students are expected to take subjects in a yearly sequence even if there are no prerequisite subjects specified. In addition to the compulsory specialisation from the Department of Accounting and Finance, specialisations are available in economics, business law and taxation, business statistics and econometrics, marketing and management.
Students are required to complete the following compulsory subjects:

• · ECC1000 Economics
• · ETC1000 Business and economic statistics
• · AFC1021/AFC1022 and AFC1031/AFC1032 Accounting principles and Introductory financial accounting
• · AFC1100/AFC2100 Introduction to finance
• · MGC1010 Introduction to management
• · MKC1200/MKC2200 Principles of marketing
• · BTC1110/BTC21110 Business law

Students wishing to take first-year subjects other than those on the above list are able to undertake the second-year versions of the appropriate number of compulsory subjects. This allows students to complete substantial work in related fields such as languages, computing, or mathematics.
The following are requirements of the course:

• · satisfactory completion of 24 subjects, or subjects to the value of a total of 144 credit points, over three full-time years or a maximum of 10 years of study
• · a maximum of 10 first-year-level subjects (60 credit points)
• · a minimum of six third-year-level subjects (36 credit points) of which at least four must be from those offered in the faculty at the campus delivering this program
• · completion of a 10-subject major in accounting and finance (ie subjects with a prefix of AFC). This requires students to complete 60 points of study in accounting and finance with at least 12 points at second-year level and 18 points at third-year level
• · at least two non-compulsory subjects (12 credit points) outside the main field of study
• · an option to include subjects to a maximum value of 36 credit points from disciplines outside the faculty or from an approved list of faculty subjects offered on campuses other than Clayton.

Students must have their program of study approved by the course director or the course director's nominee prior to commencement of the relevant year.
