From financial markets to the latest management practices and the rapidly expanding world of online commerce, a Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) at UC gives you the knowledge and skills to succeed in a global business environment.

UC and its business partners provide many opportunities for you to gain practical business experience and make important contacts. Internships, business case competitions, careers fairs and student groups all allow you to put classroom theories to the test, get innovative and network with industry professionals.

Features of the Bachelor of Commerce at UC

  • The BCom is accredited by AACSB International, reflecting our commitment to innovation and providing a competitive and industry-relevant qualification for the business professions.
  • A choice of 12 different major Commerce subjects and over 35 minor Arts and Commerce subjects.
  • Award-winning lecturers.
  • Competitions such as entré and inter-university business challenges develop your entrepreneurial, project management and teamwork skills.
  • Student-run commerce, economics and finance clubs offer support and fun.

Qualification structure and duration

The three year BCom degree requires a minimum total of 360 points:

  • at least 255 points of Commerce courses (up to 60 points of Mathematics and/or Statistics at 100 or 200-level may be included in the 255 points)
  • the remaining 105 points can be from commerce courses or courses from other degrees.

A minimum of 225 points must be from courses above 100-level, with at least 90 points at 300-level.

Flexible study options

The flexible nature of the BCom allows you to include courses from other degrees. Many students complete either a double major (combining two areas of study into one degree) or a double degree (see below). From 2017, BCom students will also have the option of completing a minor in a subject from the Bachelor of Commerce or Bachelor of Arts degree schedule.

Admission to UC with University Entrance, or equivalent, is required to enrol for a Bachelor's degree. Domestic applicants over 20 who do not hold University Entrance, or equivalent, may gain admission by providing evidence of their ability to complete tertiary study successfully. For information on gaining admission to UC please see how to apply for undergraduate qualifications.

You are required to meet UC’s English language requirements.

Recommended preparation

All students who have entry to the University can study a BCom from 100-level without previous study in the area. However, it is useful to have studied accounting, economics, business studies and mathematics (especially statistics) at school. If you have achieved top results in accounting and/or economics at school you may be eligible for direct entry to some 200-level courses.

A good standard of oral and written English is important.
