About the course

Imagine a qualification that satisfies your love of science and gives you the business acumen to apply it to the real world. The Bachelor of Business and Bachelor of Science conjoint programme does just that. You will develop skills and knowledge from both business and science, in as little as four years. You choose a major from the Bachelor of Business and combine it with a major from the Bachelor of Science. This gives you more career options and lets you apply your knowledge to different sectors. For example, if you study chemistry and marketing you will be well prepared for a career in the marketing of chemical products. Alternatively, if you study food science and management you will be prepared to work as a food scientist and later move into company management. Being doubly qualified provides you with a wide choice of employment opportunities and greater flexibility as your career develops.
