BCom Law

Recommended to students that have a dual interest in law and business. This degree complements the LLB, as it provides a broader perspective on, in particular, commerce. The subject groups within a BCom in Law are exactly the same as in the case of the BA in Law, the only difference being that modules relating to commerce are also included.
