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.

In this double degree, you will be able to combine:

• Bachelor of Commerce: This course will prepare you to become a business professional in a wide range of careers. You'll study a set of extensive and integrated foundation units to orient you to business, and then you'll complete one or two majors to develop depth in your chosen discipline.
• Bachelor of Information Technology: In this degree, you’ll acquire foundational skills in programming, data storage and modelling, networking and cyber security. You’ll develop broad and coherent knowledge and skills from an area of information technology – such as software design and construction, applied data modelling and analysis, or security problem detection and mitigation – and learn how to apply that knowledge to solve real-world problems. 

Choose from the following options:

• Accounting
• Business Analytics
• Business Information Systems
• Business Statistics
• Cyber Security Governance
• Economics
• Entrepreneurship
• Finance
• Human Resource Management
