The Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Economics double degree provides professional education in a range of commerce disciplines, with a strong emphasis on developing analytical skills. It allows the student increased breadth and depth in the major discipline areas, plus considerable opportunity for major studies from other faculties.
Students
must complete a major specialisation in one of economics or econometrics and
business statistics, and a second major specialisation in either the other
field of study, or in one of the following disciplines taught by the Faculty of
Business and Economics: accounting, finance, business law and taxation,
management and marketing. All units taken as part of a major specialisation are
limited to units taught by departments of the faculty on the Clayton campus.
Other studies may be drawn from any of the disciplines taught on the Clayton
campus by the Faculty of Business and Economics, or from other campuses or
other Monash faculties. In some cases, these other studies can form a major
specialisation in a third discipline area.
The
degree requirements are:
(a) Completion of six compulsory common core units (36 credit points):
(b) Completion of four further compulsory units (24 credit points):
(c) Completion of at least one unit (six credit points) from the following list:
First-year students
normally may not take a second-year unit until at least four first-year units
have been completed successfully.
(d) Completion of a major specialisation of at least eight units (48 credit
points) in either economics, or econometrics and business statistics with at
least two units (12 credit points) at each of second and third-year level.
(e) Completion of a major specialisation of at least eight units (48 credit
points) in a discipline or field of study of the faculty, including the
discipline not selected in (b), with at least two units (12 credit points) at
each of second and third-year level.
(f) A maximum of 13 first-year-level units (78 credit points).
(g) A minimum of eight third-year-level units (48 credit points), of which at
least five (30 credit points) must be from those offered by the Faculty of
Business and Economics on the campus delivering this program.
(h) At least two non-compulsory units (12 credit points) must be taken outside
the main fields of study.
(i) An option to include a maximum of eight units (48 credit points) from
disciplines taught by other faculties or from an approved list of faculty units
offered on campuses other than Clayton.
The degree must be completed in a maximum of 10 years of study.
It is the student's responsibility to ensure that their enrolment complies with
course requirements. Any student who has doubts on this matter should seek a
meeting with a course adviser.
