Breadth Subjects at Melb Uni

Anyone who is doing a New generation degree or doing a Bachelor of Engineering at Melb uni are required to pick a quarter of subjects outside their degree....

Has anyone thought about which breadth subjects they want to take? For me, Im thinking commerce related subjects....

I will be doing engineering and am thinking of taking up a commerce related subjected.
I am still deciding between: Accounting Reports and Analysis, Managing People and Organisations AND Introductory Microeconomics.
Don't know which one to choose yet but preferably an easy subject with girls :D
since im doing engineering, its a guarantee that at least 95% of the students are male. Therefore i need at least 1 subject with girls -____- and i also went to a male only secondary school.

in that case you should do intro micro. its easy and its a compulsory subject for commerce, so you will be guaranteed lots of chix

In VCE i did not do any business or economics subjects, all i did were basically sciences and maths except english. Will i be able to cope with the work in microeconomics?

if you've done any extension or tertiary programs in vce, maybe even at monash, apply for credit so you'll have less breadth to do.

Microeconomics is really just commonsense, however it does have a significant impact on people. I have heard lots of anecdotes about how economics students have changed their way of thinking since doing an economics subject.

I would recommend it.

"I think I am becoming a capitalist. I feel bemused and, needless to say, a little horrified at the thought. I have come to this conclusion after finding myself agreeing more than usual with my Macroeconomics lecturer on matters of free trade and heatedly explaining to my mother how economic incentives are particularly useful in solving some inherent societal problems. It is true what they say, that you really learn to think at university, that you learn to question and you come away a changed person. Ideally, you leave university with the skills to change the world should you choose to."
