Wider choice also means more flexibility for you to combine two majors from a suite; for example, you can graduate with a Bachelor of Business in Accounting and Management or a Bachelor of Business in International Business and Economics.All of the majors can be completed online, so you can base your study wherever it suits you best.
You don't have to select your major until your second year, so you use the same degree code on your application no matter what major you would like to complete.
