Course Structure



The BBus degree consists of a minimum of 24 x 6-credit subjects taken over six semesters (144 credit points). A double major program in the BBus degree is a minimum of 28 subjects (168 credit points) taken over seven semesters.

The BBus course is comprised of Christian Studies subjects, business-core subjects and either a single major and electives, or a double major.

A BBus major is a prescribed sequence in a specific business discipline of at least eight subjects (48 credit points).

A BBus double major is a prescribed sequence in two business disciplines of at least 16 subjects (96 credit points) and requiring an additional semester of study.

The business-core subjects are a prescribed sequence of eight subjects (48 credit points) of business subjects common to all strands of the degree.

Electives are undergraduate subjects which a student may freely choose from most faculties (except professional subjects from the teaching, nursing and theology degrees, coded CM, CP, CZ, NR, PP, SP) subject to timetable and prerequisite constraints. Judicious selection of electives may enable completion of a submajor. These subjects may be selected from the faculty, from other faculties or from other institutions. The submajor will consist of a minimum of four subjects in a coherent discipline area. Alternatively, electives may be used to augment a major or minor by taking additional subjects in the discipline or by taking allied subjects to broaden the major or minor. Students should seek academic advice from their course adviser. Students are advised to consult with the course coordinator prior to making final choices of electives.

All subjects are worth 6 credit points (unless otherwise specified) with a notional semester workload of 150 hours, averaging 10–12 hours per week (including contact hours).
