Enrolment in elective units is subject to meeting any required criteria for individual units, such as co-requisites and pre-requisites.
Students in the Accounting and Property specialisations will use some of their elective units to meet the accreditation requirements associated with these specialisations. Depending on the specialisations selected, these students may therefore be unable to complete a second specialisation. See handbook entries for MT2030 Accounting and MT2034 Property.

Elective units may be used toward obtaining an additional approved major (80 credit points) or sub-major (40 credit points).
