Hi people,
i wanted to ask about this course.
how is it different from commerce.
i want to put it on my preferences, to be on the safe side, in case, i miss out on commerce~!

Its more focused on practical business skills, so I believe. In the first year, you do core subjects in various areas of business (such as accounting, economics, marketing, stats, law, managing, etc) to give you a taste of a wide variety of aspects in business. The in 2nd and 3rd years you get do start your major in whatever area you wish (accounting, economics, financement, marketing, etc), and you also have a choice of a 2nd major or some sub-majors and electives.

So its quite a good course if you want the general knowledge of the common areas of business, as well as an in-depth focus in at least one or more areas of business. So its a great course to consider!

btw, if we take this course...what are the career prospects? i mean, what could we work as, is it like similar to commerce, e.g. if we undertake accounting we could work as accountants??

are u doing this course?

 

[jase_]

Yes it depends on your major/s

So if you take a major in accounting and finance (which is a great combination) then you could be an accountant and work in the finance industry too, or both at the same time!

Another good combination is accounting/finance and information technology. You get your accounting skills and you get some computing skills as well, which are good for business.

The acounting major will qualify you for entry into CPA, as with most uni courses, and similar stuff for the other majors, such as banking.

No i'm not doing this course, but considering transferring into the BBus/BComp combined degree.

Thanks i have put it in my pref,..but i think UAC wont reach upto this 1...but yeah to be on the safe side...

 

[jase_]

Its cool
wotcha mean UAC won't reach?

 

[perfectionist]

[choco]

what about b business/b science is anyone doing this combination? and is there any likely chance of the uai cut off going up?

 

[jase_]

It could go up, prolly not as high as the single degree though.

B.Bus/B. Law had a cutoff of 98.35. the year before it was 97.00.

what do ppl predict the cutoff could go to for next yr???

 

[jase_]

That course is a really good course. I'd say 99.00.

yeah, since the government has forced the uni's to cut down places.

 

[MrA]

There are no cuts in places in UTS next year...

B.Business @ UTS was 93.25 last year...any predictions on UAI cut-off next year?
