The MCD of Business is your first step towards completing your Monash Business or Commerce degree. You’ll learn how to work independently, think critically and make analytical decisions, while being introduced to the business concepts and theory you’ll need for University.
You can choose your area of specialisation from day one – better preparing you for your Monash degree. There are two streams to choose between:
Business stream – popular with students who are interested in a Business degree majoring in banking and finance, marketing or accounting. Students are also able to choose a specialist degree such as a Bachelor of International Business where they will learn to operate in international business settings and gain the skills required to do business in different countries and environments.
Commerce stream – requires a higher level of mathematics and leads to majors in areas such as economics, finance, actuarial studies and accounting.
In part 2 you’ll study the same subjects as first-year University students and develop your specialist knowledge of business or commerce.

Function and Their Applications – Commerce stream (MCD2130) – The focus of this unit will be on the behavior of functions and examining some of their applications to the real world. The way that functions will be introduced is by individually describing the characteristics of families of different function types (linear, polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric). The composition of functions through possible combination of different types of component functions will also be investigated. Other operations on functions such as transformations via shifting, scaling and reflection will be presented, along with the existence and meaning of inverse functions. This initial part of the course will then be used to provide a foundation for examining the rate of change of a function. Principally this involves defining the elementary principles of differential calculus and then utilising these with respect to the types of functions mentioned above. As a final topic an introduction to integral calculus is presented.
Introduction to Financial Accounting (MCD2160) – This unit provides students with an introduction to financial accounting guided by the Conceptual Framework and Accounting Standards.

Within this unit students can expect to learn effectively and efficiently within a collaborative learning environment. Students are expected to complete weekly assessed tasks before the start of the week. The unit is also designed to reward students for this active participation in their learning. So attendance and participation is important in achieving high results.
