Overview
For those who have interests in diverse areas, a double or conjoint degree can provide complementary and enhanced knowledge, and give you the flexibility to work in a number of different disciplines and industries when you graduate.
Working towards two separate degrees at the same time – a Double degree – means you may complete some combinations in four to five years.
UC also offers some Conjoint degree options, which merges two bachelor's degrees into one so you can study majors from different areas within a shorter timeframe.
-
Double degrees
You can enrol in two degrees and cross-credit (share) courses in common up to a maximum of 120 points. Certain combinations of degrees allow additional cross-credits or exemptions.
If you are keen to study two degrees at the same time, we recommend you get advice from each department you want to study with. Learn more about double degrees at UC.

Careful course planning is necessary when you are planning on studying conjoint or double degrees, to avoid overload and to ensure all requirements for each degree are met. It is best to speak with someone about this before you apply.
