Undergraduate programs
At the Australian School of Business we offer a wide range of business degree programs at undergraduate level.
What is an undergraduate degree?
An undergraduate degree is the first degree that you undertake at a university following high school or vocational training. Bachelor is the level and the name of the qualification you get for completing your first degree at university.
A program is an approved sequence of study which leads to the award of a degree. Programs are identified by a four-digit numeric code.
Types of programs
There are four types of undergraduate programs on offer:
- Single degree program: A single business degree of 3 to 4 years in duration
- Dual degree program: Allows you to complete two degrees concurrently
- Honours program: An optional fourth year of study
- Co-op scholarship program: Financial support and industry training to selected undergraduate students
