Taylors College is proud to announce the launch of the new Diploma of Commerce, a pathway to study at The University of Western Australia (UWA).
The program is designed specifically for students looking for an alternative pathway to The University of Western Australia’s Bachelor of Commerce. It is equivalent to the first year of the Bachelor of Commerce and on successful completion guarantees you entry into second year of a UWA Business School major (Accounting, Business Law, Economics, Finance, Human Resource Management, Marketing and Management)
How a Taylors College Diploma of Commerce will benefit you
