The Commerce Faculty is the largest of all the faculties in the University of
Cape Town and continues to expand the
programmes it offers its students. Commerce degree programmes prepare students
for the personnel needs of the fast-growing world of financial service
industries and prepare them for participation in the global economy. The
Commerce Faculty receives strong support from international agencies, and
remains committed to engagement with the African continent.
The Faculty offers two undergraduate degrees: a four-year Bachelor of Business
Science (BBusSc) and a three-year Bachelor of Commerce (BCom). Both of these
degree programmes are divided into a variety of streams to cater both for the
interests of our students, and the employment needs of the country.
