The Australian School of Business in conjunction with the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences offers the combined Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Arts (BCom/BA).
This is a five year program combining the strengths and flexibility of each single degree program. It is expected that the combined degree program will appeal to students wanting, in particular, a strong, focused and highly regarded business program that is complemented by a humanities discipline - chosen out of personal interest or with a particular career objective in mind. With approval, students with an excellent academic record may also enrol in an additional Honours year in the Bachelor of Commerce. Program Objectives and Learning Outcomes Bachelor of Commerce
