Commerce (Co-op) - 3554 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Bachelor of Commerce (Co-op) (BCom(Co-op)) is a highly valued and unique business qualification. It provides high-achieving students with a strong, 4-year academic program, integrated with fully assessable industry placement experiences that enable students to work with some of Australia's leading employers. The degree is also flexible enough to allow students to design a program which aligns their interests and career ambitions in accounting, finance, actuarial studies, marketing or information systems with other areas of business, or to complete an Honours year within the 4 years. The BCom (Co-op) combines the requirements of the degree with 18 months of coordinated industrial experience at three different sponsoring organisations. Industrial training extends outside university semesters. A scholarship is payable from funds donated by the sponsoring organisations, and entry to the program is limited to students awarded a scholarship through the BCom(Co-op) selection procedures administered by the Co-op Program Office. For baseline requirements to the UNSW Co-op program visit the future students page. Program benefits:
