Majors
A major is a sequence of subjects in a particular discipline from an introductory level through to an advanced level.
Students must complete three specified level-3 subjects (these are usually subjects that students would study in the third and final
year of their degree) to complete a major in a commerce discipline area. Level-3 subjects require students to have completed the
relevant level-1 and level-2 (i.e. first and second year) prerequisite subjects.
Majors are available across the six discipline areas:
ÆÆ
accounting
ÆÆ
actuarial studies
ÆÆ
economics
ÆÆ

Major in Business
A business major consists of six level-3 subjects from three or more fields of study within the commerce program. Students should
note that subjects included for a major in business cannot be included in any other major. A student would need to complete six
level-3 subjects in addition to the three required for a specified major if they wish to combine business with another major.
