Commerce/Economics (1 Viewer)

[LOLA!!!!]

What is the differance between doing Commerce/Economics and just normal Commerce where you major in economics. Is it worth doing the double degree?

 

[slyhunter]

I asked a Commerce lecturer on this once and he said the BEc was exactly that.

I suppose you could do it if you want more majors but doing a BCom alone takes a year less and gets you out into the workforce earlier.

you can also do econometrics in com/eco

 

[jaychouf4n]

People usually do Commerce/Economics to extend their degree by a year. 3 years is a short time.

BCom (Hons) is 4 years as well and is highly regarded.

Besides, an extra year means more uni debt and one year less in the workforce.

Thanks for the help guys!

LOLA!!!! no disrespect but why would you want to do that degree. What are you going to work as? Do you honestly think any job you will get post graduation in that degree will get you good money?

 

[LOLA!!!!]

ChRoMaTiCx are you talking about Commerce/ Economics or Commerce in general?
