Macquarie has always considered our students to be co-creators in their learning. One of the most exciting developments in our new curriculum is around your ability to study two degrees at once.

• Bachelor of Business Administration: This degree will develop your skills in business, ethics, management, finance, economics, accounting, human resources, marketing and strategy – all key competencies you’ll need to succeed in today’s dynamic global business environment.
• Bachelor of Arts: This degree allows you to turn your passion into a career by exploring your interests in depth, and by honing your skills and knowledge through internships, practical application and expert teaching.
