Commerce - Melb vs UNSW

(1/2) > >>

Hey guys I have offers from

Melbourne UNI - Commerce

UNSW - Double degree  (Commerce +   Science/economics/media/arts)



I just want to seek some opinion from you guys to see which is better. Apparently UNSW's Australian school of business is the best in Australia?

Personally it does not matter to me if I go to UNSW or Melb. All I care about is the quality of education and also the "prestigiousness". Thanks!

EvangelionZeta:
Definitely UNSW.  Not only is it the best business school, it also has a very business-interested population of students, and so it will be fantastic grounds for networking etc. (which is obviously really important in business).  Double degree also looks more attractive on your resume perhaps.

It depends on what you want to specialise in. UoM has one of the best finance faculties in Australia (and in the world), especially if you're looking at postgrad (masters/phd) overseas, UoM has a set of well-connected professors with top uni's in America and England, so if you are looking far into the future, you should definitely consider UoM (if finance). Furthermore, the quality is essentially the same in undergraduate, sure there may be a bit of difference here and there but essentially all commerce undergraduate subjects do not tend to differ by much. If you are looking at postgrad however, I know that UNSW has one of the top mathematical economics faculties in Aus, otherwise stick with UoM for finance. If you are looking at financial econometrics (or applied finance), you should consider Monash (not sure if you got an offer from them but if you can get into UoM Comm you should be able to get into Monash Comm).

If you are intending to specialise in finance/economics etc, definitely do a science double degree as that will boost you analytical skills which is invaluable for finance/economics.

kuzza:
Thanks very much for the opinions.

I am actually intending to do Management and marketing... What are all of your views about it.

If I were to go UNSW, I will do media and commerce. or economics and commerce.

Thanks

I see, sorry I can't provide much opinions on those majors, not very knowledgeable in those areas :(
