Program AimsThis program will provide students with an opportunity to attain in minimum time a single qualification in Commerce and Science by completing two majors (Finance and Applied Mathematics). It will provide graduates with skills that are in demand in at least two important commercial sectors. The banks, since deregulation, have been exposed to new and sophisticated capital markets and require graduates with a high level of financial and analytical skills able to design and analyse complex mathematical models. Insurance and financial consulting companies must also respond to the demands of complex superannuation and tax laws. In each of these cases, graduates with a combined finance/mathematics background would be ideal.
Applicants for admission to the program must satisfy the entry requirements for admission to the Bachelor of Commerce and the Bachelor of Science.
