Bachelor of commerce

1. Vicky
Bachelor of Commerce

2. Why you choose the degree
Actually, I knew little about the commerce before but I choose to study
business by myself. First, my father is a business man and I become
interested in business. Second, we only have two choices if we want
to study in ISC which are business and science, however, science is
too difficult so I think commerce is more suitable for me.

3. YEAR 1-Engage the principles of Business
In first year, we will learn about the foundations of business, how businesses
work and their relationship with society. You will be challenged to read, think,
debate and work in teams. First year modules unique to the UCD BComm
