About the course
This combined degree lets you graduate with two qualifications in four years: a Bachelor of Philosophy, Politics and Economics (with the PPE Extended Major) and a Bachelor of Commerce with your choice of business major. You’ll build interdisciplinary insight into policy and society alongside strong commercial and analytical skills. The structure also allows flexibility to exit with a single degree if your plans change in this Bachelor-level business and public policy pathway.
Career outcome
Graduates are prepared for roles that bridge public policy and commercial decision-making, using critical analysis from philosophy, politics and economics alongside business skills from commerce. Career pathways span business, government and not-for-profit organisations, including diplomacy, policy advising, management consulting, corporate leadership and economic or political journalism. This combined Bachelor-level qualification supports careers across commerce and public-sector strategy.
