Double major
Students can study for a second major (called a double major) as part of a BCom. Common majors that combine well听include:听Accounting and Finance, Economics and Finance, Management and Human Resources, Management and Marketing. Other combinations are also possible. With careful planning, a BCom double major can be completed within three years and with some combinations does not require any additional courses. The strength of a double major is that you听specialise听in more than one discipline, and have more to offer as a BCom graduate.

Double degree
Many students study for a second degree in addition to a BCom (called a double degree). In particular, a BCom and a听Bachelor of Laws听(LLB) is a highly marketable combination. The BCom also combines well with degrees in Arts, Science, Forestry听Science听and Engineering. It is normally possible to complete the two degrees in five years (some degree combinations may take longer).

Conjoint degree
Students may also听wish to consider听a conjoint degree in Product Design or Science. The听Conjoint Bachelor of Product Design and Commerce听and听the听Conjoint Bachelor of Commerce and Science, requires 60 points less than a double degree and will be completed in four years in an intensive format.
