Program Overview

Combining business and law will give you an edge in the legal field and in any organisation. Whether you’re pursuing a career in business or law, both disciplines will give you an advantage, opening up a range of career opportunities beyond the courtroom and boardroom.

In the Bachelor of Business, you will gain practical, real-world experience and make professional connections. You will develop core skills across all business functions, as you build specialist knowledge in a chosen field to excel in today's dynamic and complex business environment.

The Bachelor of Laws equips you with a comprehensive legal education. This world-class degree provides you with a thorough grounding in the law, the social and ethical context in which law operates, while equipping you with essential practical skills including an internship and integrated skills program.  

A double degree at UOW provides a world-class qualification in less time and at less cost than studying the two degrees separately. Having a double degree will give you a competitive advantage in a crowded job market.

Major: Finance
Finance is about money and investments. People on their own and in partnerships, companies and other entities (including state and federal governments), have a common objective of profitable investment. What is a government-secured bond? What is a share? What are the reasons for investing in either...and when is the right time? These are some of the questions answered in the domain of finance.

You will study finance in depth, examining investment, financial markets, financial modeling and portfolio analysis. You will learn advanced statistical techniques for analysis and modeling, including the classical linear regression model, model diagnostics, univariate time series modelling and forecasting. You’ll explore corporate finance, including financial strategies, security analysis and portfolio management. The course is both rigorous and practical, with an emphasis on applications and real world financial management. It will give you the theoretical knowledge and tools of business finance that are demanded by employers in all sections of the world economy.
