Course structure
Overview
Honours is available for this course
The University of Melbourne offers a learning environment that stimulates, challenges and fulfils the potential of ambitious students from around the globe, leading to personal development, meaningful careers and profound contributions to society.
The Bachelor of Commerce is a flexible degree that builds skills and expertise while you explore your interests at the same time. This is a three-year degree in which you will complete 24 subjects (300 points of study in total). You will undertake 8 subjects (100 points of study) in each year of full-time study.
Commerce majors
Your major is your primary area of study. In your first year, you’ll have the chance to explore different disciplines through foundation subjects linked to each major (for Actuarial Studies, the foundation subject is strongly recommended but not compulsory).
Learn more about each major:
*For professional accreditation in Accounting or Actuarial Studies, you should begin the required first-year subject sequence straight away. For other majors, the Level 1 pre-major subject can be taken later, provided it’s completed before you move into Level 2.
Students can complete a double major by combining any two majors listed above within the standard 300 credit points of the degree (no extra time required). Note that for students seeking accreditation in the Actuarial Studies major, a double major is only possible when combined with Business Analytics, Economics or Finance.
Specialisations
From 2026, you can deepen your knowledge by focusing 25 credit points of your level 3 elective study toward a specialisation within your major. The following 10 specialisations will be available to these respective majors:
- Ethics & Sustainability (open to all majors)
- Econometrics (Economics)
- Economic Policy (Economics)
- Computational Finance (Finance)
- Valuation & Modelling (Finance)
- Human Resource Management (Management)
- Supply Chain Management (Management)
- Digital Marketing (Marketing)
- Strategic Marketing (Marketing)
- Actuarial Risk Management (Actuarial Studies)
First-year foundation experience
In your first year, you’ll complete at least four subjects from a curated foundation pool that introduces every commerce discipline and tackles real-world business problems. You’ll work in teams, analyse case studies and build core university skills while exploring how commerce can create positive economic, social and environmental impact. A co-curricular transition program runs alongside the subjects to help you connect with classmates and plan your study pathway.
Breadth subjects
The Melbourne curriculum allows you to incorporate breadth subjects into your degree. This gives you the chance to explore subjects or disciplines outside of commerce.
Use breadth to explore creative interests or topics you have always been curious about; or complement your major and career development with a language, communication skills or technological expertise.
If you have a professional graduate program in mind, such as the Juris Doctor (Law) or Master of Engineering, you can use your breadth subjects to develop your knowledge and meet prerequisites from day one. Breadth subjects can give you the flexibility to qualify for graduate studies or explore interests in a field that’s very different from your major.
Honours
The Bachelor of Commerce (Honours) offers a challenging and rewarding fourth year of specialised study in Accounting, Actuarial Studies, Economics, or Finance. This program provides in-depth knowledge, enhances research and analytical skills, and boosts your employability. Graduates are highly sought after in the corporate sector or can advance to Masters or PhD programs, making Honours an invaluable addition to your resume.
Concurrent Diploma (Domestic students only)
Complete a diploma alongside your undergraduate degree to broaden your studies and enhance your employability. Concurrent Diplomas are offered in Computing, Mathematical Sciences, Music or select languages. Equivalent to a major from a different faculty (100 points of study) they add a year to the usual full-time study load, but with approval can be completed within 3.5 years with cross-crediting (of up to 50 points) and/or overloading.
Profile
Michael Tirtana
Bachelor of Commerce (Economics and Finance) student Michael Tirtana travelled to San Francisco in the USA, as part of Commerce’s Global Management Consulting subject. He worked at IBM Cloud Garage, in January 2018.
“I wanted to take a subject that allowed me to put into practice the theories I have learnt over the years; this is what Global Management Consulting offered. Having had no prior working experience, the opportunity to be a student consultant in IBM felt like the right step."

|---|---|
| Accounting |
Accounting is the ‘language of business’, informing management decision-making within an organisation and the allocation of resources between organisations. It provides the tools to measure and assess firm performance and valuation. Professional accountants operate in an increasingly complex and sophisticated field and are valued in every industry. Accountants act as strategic advisers and business partners and must, therefore, understand business issues and processes and have the skills necessary for sound decision-making. The study of Accounting leads to a career path with many diverse possibilities – you can work in a variety of roles, in any sector, in countries across the globe. The Accounting major offers a direct path to becoming a qualified accountant. You'll learn about the financial structure of organisations, and how to produce and analyse financial information. You'll also develop knowledge of business strategy, issues and processes, along with the skills for sound decision making. Membership requirements to Professional Associations vary but will usually require you to have completed certain subjects in the Bachelor of Commerce, such as BLAW10001 Principles of Business Law, BLAW20001 Corporate Law, and BLAW30002 Taxation Law I. Full membership requirements may include relevant work experience and/or further study. |
| Actuarial Studies |
Actuaries employ a range of cutting-edge quantitative methods to assess and manage financial risks. Actuaries work in general insurance, life insurance, reinsurance, health insurance, superannuation, banking and financial services, consulting, government and with data scientists on a range of commercial problems facing organisations. The actuary’s work is based on a multi-disciplinary background in mathematics, statistics, finance and economics. A major in Actuarial Studies will give you a firm grounding in the traditional actuarial skill set of mathematics, statistics, demography, finance and economics and you will also develop skills in data science. Specifically, you’ll learn from subjects covering actuarial techniques and life insurance modelling, through to the mathematics of finance and insurance risk models. Professional RecognitionThe Centre for Actuarial Studies is accredited by the Actuaries Institute, which is the professional actuarial body in Australia. This accreditation means that students who complete certain subjects at the University of Melbourne, and achieve a sufficiently high standard, will be recommended for exemption from the corresponding subjects of the Actuaries Institute. Further details are available in the Students’ Guide on the Centre for Actuarial Studies website. The Faculty of Business and Economics is also designated as a Center of Actuarial Excellence by the Society of Actuaries in the United States of America. |
| Business Analytics |
The of use of increasingly diverse forms and large amounts of data in business intelligence and decision making has been increasingly integral to achieving and sustaining competitive advantage. Decision makers in business organisations, public sector organisations and policy makers are reliant on business analyst professionals who can identify useful data for generating new insights, structuring and interpreting the data, and communicating their analysis to nontechnical users and decision makers. Graduates with a major in Business Analytics have varied employment opportunities in both the public and private sector in a rapidly expanding set of professional applications. Data analytics working across different industry and organisational settings combine knowledge and skills from core business and economics disciplines, such as accounting, actuarial studies, economics, finance, human resource management, operations and supply chain management, and marketing, with techniques that rely on computational science, including algorithms, natural language programming, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing. Competing the major in Business Analytics, students will learn about core techniques deployed to identify, evaluation and resolution of complex business and economics problems. This major offers a strong complement to other existing majors within the Bachelor of Commerce, which provide the theories, models and techniques relevant to particular professional fields. |
| Economics |
Economists combine data and models to understand economic decision-making by various actors, including households, businesses, and governments, and predict how their decisions affect particular communities, industries, and sectors, as well as the economy and society. For instance, economists examine how individuals choose what to buy and how to spend their time, how companies set prices and earn profits, how taxes and interest rates are determined, and how countries engage in pressing societal challenges, such as inequality, innovation, international trade, and climate change. |
| Finance |
The Finance major is the study of money management. Finance professionals manage assets to create wealth for investors or companies. When dealing with investments, it's about considering the time between investment and future payoff - and the risks attached to these future payoffs. The finance discipline examines how these organisations raise funds to implement investment strategies, and how they allocate these funds to a variety of investment opportunities. This involves the application of economic analysis, accounting concepts and quantitative methods to solve financial problems, assess risks and make financial decisions. The discipline of finance covers three key areas:
These core subject areas may be supplemented with elective subjects in financial planning (personal finance), banking, international finance, entrepreneurial finance, ethics in finance and FinTech. Studying finance will prepare you for a career in the finance sector and as finance specialists in industry and government. Professional RecognitionThe University of Melbourne is a Program Partner of the CFA Institute, which awards the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation. Recognition as a CFA Program Partner means the Commerce Finance major is tied to professional practice and helps prepare you for the CFA exams. More information can be found on the Finance Accreditation page. |
| Management |
Effective managers lead businesses and organisations in achieving their goals. Studying management equips you with the leadership, analytical, planning and decision-making skills used in managing people and operations. In completing the major in Management, you will learn about your own personal effectiveness, how to work in teams, and how to solve real organisational problems, as well as the necessary tools for effective decision-making. You will understand the principles of making good business decisions, managing business operations, dealing with change, thinking globally, and acting ethically. In this major, you can choose subjects from specialist areas including business management, human resource management, international business and operations management. Career options are many and varied, including positions in management consulting, senior business leadership positions, equity and diversity officer, human resources manager, project manager, change management specialist, recruitment consultant, manager of business process improvement, research and development management, and many others. The Management major is also a valuable complement to studies in another areas, such as accounting or finance. |
| Marketing |
Marketing is essential to the health of any profitable enterprise, whether in the public or private sector. Marketing allows you to manage a brand and contribute to an organisation’s business strategy. A major in marketing will provide you with the tools and skills you need to build relationships with your audience. You will learn how to research and evaluate market opportunities. You will learn how to create compelling value propositions for customers. We will teach you how to design products and communication campaigns that will engage and excite customers. And you will see the importance of putting the customer at the centre of everything the organisation does. Teaching topics span the breadth of marketing education including advertising, product and brand management, strategic marketing, market research, service and relationship marketing, global marketing, digital marketing and consumer behaviour. Marketing studies offer vital skills and knowledge to underpin your career growth, whatever path you choose to take. |
