The Bachelor of Modern Languages and Bachelor of Business at the University of Western Australia is a four-year combined degree based in Perth. This course allows students to study a business specialisation such as management, marketing, or finance, alongside advanced proficiency in one or more modern languages. Students engage with a mix of core and elective business units and language studies, usually earning credit points through units of study each semester.
Throughout the degree, students learn to communicate effectively in another language, gaining practical skills necessary for international business settings. Language classes are interactive and frequently incorporate cultural studies and exchange opportunities. Business units involve real-world case studies, strategic planning, and analytical coursework relevant to the Australian and global business environment.
There are options to take part in work-integrated learning placements, giving students exposure to local Perth companies or organisations with international links. The course structure often culminates in a capstone or final-year project that brings together business knowledge and language skills in an applied context.
This double degree suits those interested in international careers or in sectors where communication and cultural fluency are valued. Students can combine their passion for languages with strong business acumen, opening doors in sectors that look for globally minded graduates. Those planning to study must confirm course details and any changes on the official UWA site.
It typically takes 4 years, with intakes in Semester 1 (Feb/Mar), Semester 2 (Jul).
Tuition is around A$192,400 total. Fees change yearly, confirm with an advisor.
