Essential content for all business, economics and law students.

Really well taught!

Microeconomics focussed. The quizzes are a bit tricky but they are similar to the final exam so study hard. The final is not easy at all so you do need to study really hard.

BUSS1040 was the best core Commerce unit I've sat. It provides a vital introduction to economic concepts such as different market structures and market interventions, both of which are integral to a student's understanding of future Commerce content. Despite the fact that it is no longer a core Commerce unit, I would still highly recommend it.

Pay attention to the 5 quizzes, they are similar to the exams and are good revision. Final exam is quite difficult however definitely doable if you study hard! The main perk over many of the other compulsories is the skill of the lecturers- lectures are focused.

Really good and structured, may be difficult at first, lectures really try to make it easy but may be too fast to understand, towards the end topics get rushed other than that it's a great subject even if you don't like Economics or haven't done it priorly

Love this course

Diligent workers get good marks.

Can be hard at first especially if you have no economics background however quickly becomes one of the most enjoyable compulsories. Assessments are difficult however fairly marked. Through the weekly tutorial questions, there is an opportunity for regular practice with the concepts and their application. Final exam is quite difficult however definitely doable if you study hard! The main perk over many of the other compulsories is the skill of the lecturers- lectures are focused, engaging and well-paced with plenty of examples given so that students can easily appreciate the relevance of the subject to real life.
