    Double Key Program

    Didnt read 2nd half of your post. You can try adding both of them as a key program right now on MYUWS but im pretty certain it wont let you have 2 key programs. Only way to get around this is to do one of them as a key program and the other as a major or sub major(there is a difference between...

    Double Key Program

    There wouldnt be a huge difference between Applied Finance and Economics And Finance. First year units are identical between all three key programs, so there is no real difference in the first year. Im doing Macroeconomic theory, Financial Institutions and Markets and Corporate Financial...

    Double Key Program

    There already is a key program that achieves what your essentially trying to do, Economics and Finance. By doing Economics and finance you essentially end up doing all the 2nd yr units you would do in Applied Economics or Applied Finance. However some units that are specific to Applied...

    B Business and Commerce - Marketing

    If your not doing the unit until spring dont worry about it until then. Keep in mind electives do have prerequisites, wouldnt surprise me if you had to pass marketing principles before you could enrol into the marketing elective. Otherwise you need to get in contact with the unit co-ordinator.

From what ive heard engineering and science students do alot more. 9 hours does seem abit low bit it will pick up in ur 2nd and 3rd yrs. Keep in mind its expected that you are doing work outside...

    B.Bus/Com - ABL?? Help??

    B.Bus/Com - ABL?? Help??

    I cant really comment on how difficult international business/global management is compared to accounting, to be honest they're two completely different fields. But there is a general perception that accounting is one of the more difficult key programs to do. The accounting key program gets you...

    B.Bus/Com - ABL?? Help??

    If youre not sure what you want in terms of employment after graduating you would be better off choosing a key program that offers a broader set of knowledge and skills, ie International Business And Global Management. It might not be as indepth compared to doing a key program in either...

    B.Bus/Com - ABL?? Help??

    You can do what i done. Just do the plain Bus and Comm then either transfer to ABL after the first year or do the sub major in ABL and remain in Bus And Comm. There is no real difference you do exactly the same units just your degree will be called something different.

    casual job /writing resume

    Very few places would employ you just for a month or two but it is still possible. You would defintely be better off finding a casual/ part time job and doing that while youre at uni. As hannah mentioned it shows graduate employers that you have time management and basic skills necessary for any...

Otherwise dont bother, its abit impractical to do a roll call for 300+ students to check your in the right lecture and actually attending. Alot...

    casual job /writing resume

    Keep the resume to roughly no more than two pages, any more is pushing it imo since alot of recruiters/employers just skim read it. Can you be bothered reading a 4+ page document when you can skim over a well summarised 2 page resume? In your resume include areas such as education(any...
