DOUBLE THE DEGREE FAST TRACK A SECOND DEGREE
If you’ re feeling the pull to explore more than one discipline, a double degree could be the right move.
A double degree allows you to study for two degrees at the same time, saving you time and money. It requires only an extra year of study, and you’ ll graduate at least two years sooner than if you studied the courses separately.
Studying two degrees is a great way to keep your options open and expand your employability. You’ ll build a depth of expertise and develop a broader range of skills in two different or complementary areas, providing multiple career options.
Business and Commerce
Computer Science
What defines us as individuals also defines us as systems – of action, behaviour and data. If you’ ve got an analytical mind, you might recognise the potential here. From algorithms and big data, to digital innovation, this double degree will show you how analytical insight can be used to face challenges and create opportunities in the commercial world.
Business and Commerce Digital Media and Communication
This is a great combination if you’ re seeking comprehensive knowledge in both fields, as well as an edge in the competitive world of digital media and business. Understanding digital media will help you better manage your business from a communications standpoint, and the core business and communication skills you’ ll gain will be transferable to any number of industries.
I studied a double degree because of my genuine interest in both data analysis and creative communication. Understanding data helps me uncover valuable patterns, while effective communication allows me to translate these insights into impactful strategies. This combination has been essential in my role as a media planner, where I need to balance data-driven thinking with creative problem-solving.”
