Units indexed by faculty Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Business and CommerceCourse code: 3511 + Course abbreviation: BSc/BBusCom + Total credit points required: 204 + 4 years full-time, 8 years part-time + Managing faculty: Science Study mode and course locationOn-campus (Gippsland) Course descriptionThe course aims to prepare students to work at a professional level in a scientifically oriented environment in which application of modern business techniques is required, or in a commercial environment where a background in science, technology or information technology is desirable. Course structureStudents are required to complete 96 points from the Faculty of Science and 108 points from the Faculty of Business and Economics. Within the science component, students may not complete more than 36 points of level-one units and overall must complete at least 24 points of level-three science units. Course requirementsStudents must complete all of the following: (a) Six compulsory introductory 6-point units, one in each of the following business disciplines:
Note that students who complete the science unit STA1010 will be exempted from the compulsory unit ETW1102 (Business statistics), thereby reducing the total course requirement from 204 points to 198 points. (b) A business major of at least 48 points (eight units), including at least 12 points at each of levels two and three. (One core unit from part (a) may form part of the 48 points requirement.) (c) At least 48 points of business units beyond level one, including at least 24 points at level three (the business major sequence meets part of this requirement). (d) Two 6-point science core units: STA1010 at level one and SCI2010 at level two. (e) Two science sequences (excluding computing) consisting of a major sequence in one area of study and a minor sequence in a different area of study. (f) One 6-point level-one science unit from an area of study other than those studied under part (e). Science sequences are available in the following areas of study (consult the section ‘Science areas of study and sequences' offered for the Gippsland campus for details): applied biochemistry, applied statistics (minor only), applied chemistry, applied microbiology, mathematics and modelling, human physiology (minor only), psychology, and environmental science and resource management. The maximum time for completion of the course is 10 years, including intermissions. Students who wish to graduate with a Bachelor of Science, or undertake honours in science, prior to the completion of the BSc/BBusCom course must have completed at least 144 points of studies including all of the science requirements for the course.
