Why study the Bachelors of Business Management/Science?
By combining these two areas of study in a dual degree, students will be given the vocationally focused business background, along with scientific theory and practical skills in their chosen major within the Bachelor of Science.
When this program is studied at a standard load of four courses per semester, the final semester will comprise part-time study of only two courses. Students may decide to overload in previous semesters or undertake study in a summer semester to reduce the total duration of the program.
