Q. How did you choose your double degree and why do you think Commerce and Economics complement each other?

Q. How has your double degree impacted your future career goals?
A. having a double degree means that I can keep my options open throughout the course and beyond. If I decide I want to go down a different career path, then that option is available to me.

Q. What would you say if someone asked you why a double degree is a good option?
A. Double degrees are a great option as they make your course more flexible and give you more choices, particularly in terms of subject selection. The extra degree means that you can mix up what you’re mainly studying with another area to help stay engaged and motivated by your course.
