Business Programmes

The first two semesters (1 year) will comprise a common foundation year for both BBA and BCom. The foundation year will prepare students for either course by providing them with the necessary skills in IT, language, and quantitative analysis, and by introducing them to basic functional knowledge, skills, and theoretical foundations of business. At the end of the first year, students have the opportunity to submit their preferences for whether they want to continue with General Management, Marketing, or Human Resources Management majors (in which case they become BBA students) or with either the Accounting or Finance majors (in which case they become BCom students), for the remaining two years. Students will be placed in majors based on preference and availability of slots -- not all majors will be offered every year.

The BBA Programme aims to create graduates with high business acumen with a major focus in the areas of general management, human resources management, and marketing. The core focus of the programme is on behavioural and managerial aspects, wherein students will be provided with a grounded business education to deal effectively with people in organizations. Students will be provided opportunities to develop skills related to presentations, communications, IT, analytical thinking, interpersonal relations, and the design of marketing and human resource strategies. The objective of the programme is to provide a strong foundation in business education with theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The programme offers six major modules that will enable students to delve deeper into the area of their specialization, making them highly competitive in the job market. Further, the knowledge and skills gained from the programme will help students to pursue higher studies.

The BCom programme aims at equipping graduates with the knowledge and technical skills that are necessary to understand and participate in the modern business world, with orientation in the two key functional areas of Accounting and Finance. It also offers an emphasis on the development of soft skills that are essential for the effective delivery of personal and professional duties in the community and organizations. The programme draws its themes and inspiration from past and current industries and human resource development need in both domestic and international markets. With the expanded depth and options for majors in Accounting and Finance, the programme also prepares students for subsequent graduate studies. Further, it allows students to achieve the highest level of success in their professional careers. BCom graduates will acquire adequate knowledge and skills required to pursue and practice professional qualifications such as Chartered Accountant, Chartered Management Accountant, Chartered Financial Analyst, Cost and Management Accountant, Certified Public Accountant, etc.
