Handbook Terminology:

Double Degree

A double degree is a combination of two Central Queensland University degree programs from two disciplines which is undertaken simultaneously and has one set of program rules and results in two testamurs in less time than the total time for each degree because of reciprocity of credit for up to 50% of one degree program for specified subjects.  Depending upon whether or not credits are granted and the length of each separate degree, a double degree will require between 216 and 384 units of study to be completed.  Students may receive a degree with distinction for one or both of these awards.
