commerce and business degree question...

[mystikal]

ok it stumped me when a person asked me what is the difference of doing a monash bacheolar of commerce (major accounting) and monash bacheolar of business(major accounting)... when i looked at the VTAC guide it looks basically the same ... in terms of structure... u can even mimic everything offered in the commerce... so is there anything different? is commerce degree more prestigious?

also i wanted to know what career pathways can a major in business law/taxation (i think its this one) lead too... like what companies would hire you.. and what is the general graduate salary and can it grow significantly after a couple of years... ?

Bachelor of Business is for those who can't get into Bachelor of Commerce and have to put up with a hole of a Campus (Monash Caulfield).

but essentially.... everything else is the same?

Really? Is the campus there that bad?.... Because I'm thinking of transferring there possibly for next year for the double degree Accounting and Banking and Finance. I would transfer to monash clayton commerce because I got the enter and GPA but it's 2 far away and I would have to move out.

Oh it is, it is. It doesn't really have that much of a campus feel, it's just a few random buildings. All Monash Victorian campuses apart from Clayton are pretty small... Defs a significantly downgrade from Deakin(?) There's also a significant amount of postgrads/international students compared to Clayton.

It's a shame you can get in but live far away =[
