Bachelor of Commerce

With New Zealand's leading Bachelor of Commerce programme you will learn from the country's best teachers and mentors to get a taste of every aspect of the business world before deciding on a major or double major that's right for you. The real-world skills, knowledge and experience you will gain, along with the programme's world-class accreditation and strong links to industry, will see you thrive in any industry you choose. From 2021, we are making some exciting changes to our BCom: you'll experience our innovative, new first year in Business programme, with interactive learning, including workshops where you solve real-world business problems.

A BCom with a double major is a three-year degree programme. You will be required to complete a minimum of 24 courses (360 points). In your first year, you will complete a new, integrated set of core courses, experiencing the multi-disciplinary environment that businesses operate in, and two further courses depending on the major(s) you are planning to take.

A double major requires careful planning.

You will also be required to select two General Education papers - this is a distinctive feature of our University's degree designed to broaden your education.

• If you wish to major in Accounting you will need to enrol in ACCTG 102 in your first year.
• If you wish to major in Economics you will need to enrol in ECON 152 in your first year.
• If you wish to major in Finance you will need to enrol in ACCTG 102 and MATHS 108 (or 150 or 153) in your first year.

Over the next two years, you will complete a business consulting course and a capstone course, which will give you an opportunity to apply your skills and knowledge in a practical context that can be shown to employers.

*Maximum of two courses from outside the BCom schedule.
