Just a thing that my careers adviser said... people who major in marketing or management or both are less employable than people who major in things like accounting and economics because you develop more transferable skills (i think that was the reason she gave >.<)

Ok thanks for the advice sheepz I'll keep that in mind

I'm doing a double major in Marketing and Human Resources at Swinburne. Why don't you major in both?
I think at ACU you have to do the business core subjects of all majors anyway so try them all and see what you like!

Yeah we have a year to decide on what to major in, in our first year we're introduced to a few business fields, however we only have one major.

At uni the student-run clubs said that students doing accounting majors should start enjoying their social lives because they won't have many opportunity to do so in the future.
