Hi, I'm planning on doing a Bachelor of Commerce/Law at UNSW and was wondering what kind of full time contact hours I should be expecting? Forgot to ask today at the law lecture, but was told during the business lecture that for commerce its only 3 hours per week.


Thanks

Edit: would post this in the Faculty of Law [UNSW] forum but its been dead for over a month

My friend does com/law at UNSW and he only goes uni three days a week.
I don't know how many hours though.
But hope that helps.

14 hr is the correct answer for unsw.

3 commerce subject with 3 hr contact hour each = 9 hrs

For law you will be doing foundation of law PLUS legal research = 4+1 hr = 5 hrs

14 hr total.

um i ddint pick any from my major


if u r doign any other major than actuarial, then u will be enrolling in ACCT151, ECON1101 and ECON1203 and for law, LAWS1052. If you are doing actuarial u do not do ECON1203 but instead do two maths courses.

hope that helps
