This course is ideal for those who want to change their career to the commerce sector. Businesses and industries today are looking for graduates who have a broad commerce perspective; this course provides the fundamental skills which will allow non-Commerce graduates to obtain a stand-alone qualification in preparation for a career in either small- or large-scale business contexts, as well as facilitating entry to a more specialised professional degree offered through the Faculty's Double Masters programs.
Applicants must have a Bachelor degree from a recognised tertiary institution or equivalent.
The core program comprises four (4) subjects which should be taken in the first semester of study:
