About this program

Victoria University's Bachelor of Commerce is a three-year degree situated in Melbourne, Australia, delivering core business knowledge with plenty of opportunity to specialise. Students progress through compulsory units in areas such as economics, accounting, marketing, management, and business law, alongside elective units and a major of their choice. Across the degree, teaching is typically organised into semesters, with each unit contributing towards the required credit points for graduation.

This degree structure often allows students to focus on a particular discipline—such as finance, human resource management, or supply chain and logistics—while still developing a broad understanding of business principles. In the final stages, students may undertake a capstone unit or practical project that brings together their learning, preparing them for the realities of business in Australia or internationally.

Professional development is emphasised through work-integrated learning. Many students engage with industry via placements, projects, or case studies, which helps build useful contacts and hands-on skills sought after by Australian employers. Core skills gained include critical thinking, communication, problem solving, and commercial acumen.

The Bachelor of Commerce is suited to those aiming for careers across the public or private sector, whether in established companies, government departments, or the not-for-profit sector. International students should note there are opportunities for post-study work under the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485), and they may work up to 48 hours per fortnight during study. Always check the university's official page for unit options, credits and entry requirements.
