Overview
This double degree program allows students to undertake complementary study in related fields and gives them the opportunity to develop generalist business skills in commerce and expertise in both management and marketing.
The Master of Commerce is ideal for those who want to change their career to the commerce sector. Businesses and industries today are looking for graduates who have a broad commerce perspective and this course provides the fundamental skills which allow non-Commerce graduates to obtain a qualification in preparation for a career in either small or large scale business contexts.
The Master of Strategic Management and Marketing is a cross-discipline degree designed to give students professional knowledge in both areas.
Entry Requirements / Assumed Knowledge
Applicants must have a Bachelor degree from a recognised tertiary institution or equivalent.
Course Program
Students will undertake 48 credit points (8 subjects) from the Master of Commerce schedule (including a specialisation if they wish) plus a further 36 credit points (6 subjects) from the Master of Strategic Management and Marketing schedule as listed below:
