I'll probably compromise and end up doing "minors" in finance and Jap with the space left in my degree.
thanks for the info
ill most likely go down this path too, i know i want to do some finance units but i also want to do jap
just one last thing, is it better to specialise in a specific area or to get a good foundation understanding in a wider range of areas?
reason being i dont really aspire to go into any particular field/industry, id be happy to just get a semi-decent job in something relating to commerce
The structure of the degree basically forces you to either double-major, or do a major and two minors.
This is coz of the requirements to do a certain number of level 2 and level 3 units as part of your degree.
This point aside, I don't really know... I'm pursuing things I find interesting.
I think both Japanese and finance would prove useful to my career aspirations, so I'm just going to go with whichever I enjoy studying more.
Some people say there are 'good' combinations - accounting & finance; economics & finance; management & marketing; management & business law - pairs of areas within commerce that seem particularly amiable. Thing is... this makes such combinations popular... my theory is that it might not hurt to stand out from the crowd a little bit... I might be wrong though... I've really no idea what the masses of commerce-industry employers prefer... *shrug*
