The integrated double degree courses will bring changes in the design of undergraduate and postgraduate course structure that will support interdisciplinary degrees and micro-credentialing. The new courses will be classified as either General or Specialist where students can choose to either focus more deeply on a particular area that prepares them for a specific pathway or opt for a generalist degree that does not limit their future career choices. The new structure also enables students to more easily shift to another degree if they want to, and easily combine any two degrees, in a cost-effective way.
Some of the key advantages of pursuing a Double Degree program include a) completing two degrees within 2 years when it usually would take 3-4 years if these degrees were pursued individually. b) Improving one’s employment prospects – Double degrees involve studying two complementary or completely different degrees and can increase one’s career choices and lead to greater employment prospects c) Feeding one’s curiosity – by undertaking a double Bachelor degrees, one can feed one’s curiosity and look at things from multiple perspectives – all while gaining a high-quality qualification.
Speaking on the launch of the program, Nicole Brigg, Pro-Vice-Chancellor, International, said “At the Macquarie University, we are pleased to introduce our exciting new double degree programs for the undergraduate and postgraduate students. We look forward to Indian students taking full advantage of our new curriculum, which is all about creating a clearer study path for MQ students by simplifying program structures.
