The
double degree of Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Business Systems requires
a minimum of four years of full-time study. Entry to this combination is based
on the entry requirements for the Bachelor of Commerce degree. While there is a
degree of flexibility in the course structure, students must normally complete
the six compulsory first-year commerce subjects and the five compulsory
first-year business systems subjects in the first two years of the course.
Graduates are highly sought after by prospective employers. With the rapidly
increasing computerisation of the business world, those who pursue careers in
professional fields such as accounting or finance can benefit significantly
from detailed knowledge of computing. Management consulting and business
statistics are other career paths that benefit substantially from training in
computing. Alternatively, those who wish to pursue computing as their main
career path will have a definite advantage if they fully understand the
business applications and environment. This will not only enhance their
computing careers but also increase their prospects of achieving management
positions or successfully operating their own companies in the computing field.
A study score of at least 25 in units 3 and 4 English and in one of Mathematical Methods or Specialist Mathematics, and a study score of at least 20 in any two other VCE studies.
