Students must complete 192 UOC. In this double degree 96 UOC is required for the Bachelor of Actuarial Studies, and 120 UOC is required for the Bachelor of Information Systems for a total of 216 UOC.

INFS3603 will be counted towards the requirement for COMM2501. If you wish to take INFS3873 Business Analytics Methods, completion of ACTL3142 Statistical Machine Learning for Risk and Actuarial Applications as an elective in the Actuarial studies program can be counted as a substitute for INFS3873 and will satisfy this as an elective in the Information Systems program. Electives Due to course sharing across the Actuarial Studies and Information Systems components, students will meet the disciplinary component requirements of the two awards in less than 192 UOC. Once the requirements for the Actuarial Studies and Information Systems programs have been met, students need to take free electives (including Business School electives) to ensure a total of 192 UOC is completed for the Double-Degree .
