Can anyone shed some light on which of these majors would be best to do, I'm not interested in programming/software but I'll do it if required, I'm more interested in the business/hardware side of IT.

What do you like doing?
Don't really like programming/coding
Enjoy hardware / application side of things, not the deep down in depth shit.
Want something that can pair nicely with a business double degree.
Something similar to the HSC subject IPT, if you're familiar with it.

TBH, the two best majors in my opinion are inter networking and apps, or data analytics. Companies are dishing out huge dollars for students with data analytics skills, and you can never go wrong with networking and applications. According to some of my friends, business information systems is the easiest, with little technical stuff (besides all the common subject).

Business Information System Management.

If you like IPT, this is the major.

I am currently doing BISM its very easy but I am actually worried about jobs prospects, I am thinking to change to data analytics since it would compliment my finance degree but not sure yet because I hate programming and math..

Yea I want to do something I enjoy and can excel in, I think it would be better to be great at something than mediocre at something. Regarding job prospects, surely its not impossible to find a job. With the compulsory work experience for UTS and maybe some work experience through internships can get you in the door.
