However, in some cases a student may have to complete more units. The full requirements of both programmes have to be completed. While the University takes common double programme enrolments into consideration in the teaching timetable, you should expect that your selection of units will be constrained. Where the contents of two programmes overlap substantially, the University does not allow enrolment in both programmes. The Murdoch University Handbook lists these combinations.
Some programmes are subject to quota.
There is an application procedure for entry into such programmes, with a closing date in November for entry the following year. If you are considering a double programme enrolment you should see your Division Executive Officer. This two stage process is designed to make sure that you have looked carefully at the programme structures and the units available, and to ensure that you complete the requirements of both programmes in the minimum time. In addition to the major programmes offered by each discipline, Murdoch also offers a number of separate Minor programmes. If you would like more information on this enrolment opportunity, you should consult the Murdoch University Handbook and see your Division Executive Officer.
