BBA Business Management
Program Features
The BBA in Business Management provides the student with a well-grounded degree in general management. This preparation is well suited for students who want a business degree or who are looking to further their management career.
This program emphasizes the practical application of business principles to solve complex, real-life business management problems. Our faculty rely on case studies, project–based learning, and other teaching methods that promote real-world decision making. Students will apply common business practices through online and on-campus courses, working individually and in group projects in both settings. Course work emphasizes good critical thinking skills and the development of ethical leadership. Class discussions evolve around both classical issues and current trends that the business enterprise might face. The project (PJT) courses require students to apply course outcomes into a customized application project.
This program is available in fully online, one course per session, or by combining one lecture and one online course each session.
Career Benefits
Employment of general managers and top executives is expected to grow as new companies start up and established companies seek managers who can help them maintain a competitive edge in domestic and world markets.
The emphasis on the practical application of proven business management principles means that students not only gain the knowledge needed to succeed, they also learn how to use this knowledge to make a real difference in their companies. For those students already in a management career, improvement in managerial effectiveness means more recognition, promotions, and compensation for the typical graduate. Students who plan to embark on a management career, either by changing from their current field of work or by moving up into management, will benefit from the program's well-rounded approach.
Certification
Students demonstrate their competencies in each course through a combination of analytical papers, tests, case analyses, and capstone projects. Each course's capstone project is a comprehensive application of the course's principles to one or a series of business management situations. Benchmarking our graduates to those from other business schools through the ETS Major Field Test, proves our graduates are confident they can compete successfully. Their employers receive high value through the management expertise of Cleary graduates.
