Double Degrees vs Single Degree

"I've done a combined double degree in salad sandwiches and garden chairs".

Um, what?

The language that we use to talk about different degrees can be strange. Even when it's simple (like a Bachelor of Arts or an double degree in Business and Law), what does that actually mean.

And how do YOU know if you should be doing a single or a double degree?

In this video I'll explain what the different degree names are and how you can work out whether or not you should be doing a single or double degree at all.

Currently in Yr 11 hoping to do a double degree in Business / Accounting with a major in marketing.

Accounting is a good option for me (even though I find it a bit difficult), as it is one of the most crucial skills to have whether thats for employability or personal finance. It is also a stable career to fall back to if other ventures don't work out and it can make you money. You can also go into various non accounting careers with an accounting degree and sky is the limit with the amount of options you have.

Marketing is also a passion I may look to advance in as it can hold a lot of career options with high pay, flexibility and great work life balance.

Hey Thanks a lot for putting this video together. Incorporating the outback of Australia from a cattle station made much more interesting! (I really wasn't expecting it) And I feel more reassured with what pathways I want to continue with.

Hello! Before I ask my question, I just really want to say thank you so much for all these videos you've made on this channel. I think I appreciate it even more as an international student who has never been to Australia and can't go down there to visit and talk to the people at the campus :D. You've definitely played a huge role in my uni choices!! And I'm even more excited to go later this year :) I was wondering if I could ask you what your opinion is on double majors? I am planning to major in zoology but I'm also thinking of doing a 2nd major in either wildlife conservation or environmental science. But a lot of people have told me that I really need to think twice considering that the workload might be too heavy because id most probs be working part-time and I'm most definitely going to join a club or two :D. So, do you think it may be a good idea?

Hey Rob, i've recently started watching your videos and I just want to say thank you for the insightful videos! Now I have a dilemma, I'm in year 12 (vic) and am set on doing commerce (possibly with economics or finance as a double degree) However, in your personal opinion and possibly experience, would it be advisable to go to ANU for a fresh start or keep it local at Melbourne or Monash? Do you know if commerce at ANU is held to the same regard as it is from Melbourne or Monash?
Thank you heaps! and keep on putting out amazing content!

Hi Rob, would doing two general double degrees be good for someone who doesn't really know what they want to go into or just focus on a single degree like you mentioned in the video? I'm thinking of studying a Bachelor of arts/bachelor of science at ANU

Hey #Rob is it good to choose MS (Material Science) + MBA (double degree) in Australian National University?

Hello rob, I would love to hear from your feedback. Is it best for me as a 17 year old to choose double degree having engineering technology and busniness or better to single degree in engineering technology

Great video mate, year 12 nsw now in Sydney. Thinking of a financial or business type of degree but everything is too alike and doing early entry through uac seems like all the courses are pretty much the same to me. Opinions on UOW vs Sydney tech or maybe usyd or unsw. BTW great video I have liked and subscribed. 👍

How rob, how would u say the employability at latrobe uni is? btw ur a legend for these videos, love ya atttitude!

[katelynfrancis]

Hi Rob, very informative vid explained simply! I just had a few questions, i hope im not troubling you too much, but if you could answer, would be very helpful!

I want to do 2 degrees one in illustration and one in creative writing and 2 minors, one in business admin and English language and literature, and I wanna know

Can you choose 2 seperate degrees you want to double degree in or you can only do the dd's the uni offers?

If I can choose:

Should I do a double degree in the 2 degrees i want? And a double minor?

Do you think these are all too similar, should I consider doing something else or is this quite unique? In general, or even for a job application?

On last thing, im taking a minor in BA, mainly for personal knowledge, for that reason do you think studying a business admin minor is worth it? I hear a lot of ppl saying it's too general, but i also do think it teaches on multiple topics in finance, than focusing on one specific thing? Or would you say that though they teach on a variety, that the info they give is not adequate on each topic to make use of it?

Again I hope its not too much, these are some questions im still stumped on 😅

Hey rob, love your videos. I am kinda confused between ms in construction project management/property management at UNSW vs ms in construction management at Deakin, Geelong waterfront campus. Which one would you recommend from employability prospective? I'll be coming as an international student

[lachlanperry]

5:14 I do know what this is. I have one at the end of my street.

Hello Rob, thanks for your video. I want to ask is UNSW bachelor of exercise science/master of physiotherapy and exercise physiology a good programme, as it is a new one. And is Australian Catholic University Brisbane Campus, University of Adelaide or University of South Australia better in physiotherapy aspect? Thank you so much.
