Programme overview

A BCom/BProp conjoint allows you to complete a BCom and a BProp in less time than it would take to complete the two degrees separately.

In your first year of study you will complete seven compulsory core business courses, which will become the building blocks for your degree. These include an exciting two course sequence in Business and Enterprise. These will introduce the types of choices facing entrepreneurs and managers and help you develop your academic and professional skills.

During Stage II and III of your BProp you will study specialised property courses, including valuation, finance and investment, economics, law, land use planning and controls, marketing, management, and building construction.

You will have the option to choose out of twelve business subjects to major in your BCom.

Programme structure

The BCom/BProp usually takes four years to complete.

You will need to complete a total of 540 points, consisting of:

  • 255 points from BCom courses
  • 255 points from BProp courses
  • 15 points from General Education
  • 15 points from courses available for any programme

There are seven compulsory Stage I courses for the BCom component of your conjoint, after which you can focus on your chosen major(s). You can find a degree planner for the BCom/BProp under prospectuses and handbooks.

You would usually enrol in nine 15-point courses (135 points) each year if you want to complete in four years. You need to maintain a Grade Point Average of 3.5 each year to continue with your conjoint.

Most students need to take one General Education course.

Students should also be aware of the University’s Academic English Language Requirement.
