I'm hoping to do Investment Banking in future, i guess.
And I'm aware that just commerce course already contains business law as a part of course.
Is there any particular job (other than lawyer) requiring both fields sufficiently?
thanks.

If you're aiming to get into investment banking, do commerce/law, or do commerce with honours.

I talked with a couple of investment bankers a couple of months ago, and both of them were UNSW grads. Both had a commerce/law degree, with honours (one in accounting, the other in finance).

Is there any particular job, other than being a solicitor/barrister, which requires a law degree? Well no. But the skills you acquire in studying law (as opposed to business law through the business faculty) are generally highly sought after.
