finance.
Other studies may be drawn from any of the disciplines taught on the Caulfield
campus by the Faculty of Business and Economics. These other studies can in
some cases form a third major in a business discipline.

faculties.

The degree also satisfies the educational requirements for senior associate
membership of the Australasian Institute of Banking and Finance. Holders of the
degree who have not completed the two years of employment in the banking and
