Conjoint programmes You study two degrees at the same time in a single programme of study. It’s usually possible to complete two three-year degrees in four to five years. You need to maintain a B grade average across all courses and do courses from each degree every year.
Double degrees The difference between double degrees and conjoint programmes is that in the double degrees you apply for and enrol separately in each of the two degrees. If you’re considering doing this, it’s important that you contact AUT to discuss your plans. Double degrees can be completed either one after the other or concurrently.
Additional majors and minors Jamie Lee Raumati When you take a second major from the majors available in your Tuwharetoa, Tainui, Te Rarawa me Ngai Te Rangi degree this is called a double major.
