What is a BBA?

Both bachelor’s courses and the BBA provide the same general teaching, such as management, finance, human resources, business, accounting and marketing. Following graduation from either, you may then choose to take an MBA course.

µþ²¹³¦³ó±ð±ô´Ç°ù’s are general courses that include options to specialise, while the BBA is a 100% international course.

Furthermore, the study environment promotes interculturality and foreign language speaking with students of various nationalities. With certain courses, like the one run by ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ, lessons are given by native English speakers.

One of the main reasons to choose the BBA is that it offers a chance to  study abroad and earn a double degree with partner schools in other countries. The business school ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ offers two double-degree courses with:

• Nottingham Business School in the United Kingdom;
• University of South Wales, with option of taking this course at the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ campus in Nice.

Why take a BBA?

After graduating from the BBA, students may choose to continue their studies with a master’s or embark on an international career in the areas of management, business or finance. Thanks to the international reputation that the BBA enjoys, as well as the various experiences of working abroad it offers, these courses are highly valued by recruiters and they open up a huge range of career opportunities for students. After earning a Bachelor of Business Administration, young graduates can look forward to rapid career growth and an attractive salary.
