Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) / International Bachelor of Business Administration (iBBA)

Schulich’s two undergraduate programs offer students a challenging and rewarding full-time course of study. Schulich’s students develop critical and analytical skills while establishing a solid foundation in business concepts. Admission to the BBA and iBBA programs requires both high academic achievement and demonstrated leadership in extra-curricular activities.

BBA: A Business Degree with the Option to Specialize

At Schulich, the four-year Honours BBA degree involves an essential base of management studies that encompass more than the traditional focus on commerce and economics. At Schulich, students study business from their first day with first-year courses in business ethics, business history, organizational studies, accounting and economics. By carefully selecting management elective courses, you can specialize in one or more areas of business.

iBBA: A Business Degree with a Global Perspective

The Schulich iBBA allows you to immerse yourself in international business study while engaging in three years of language study, globally-focused studies, and an exchange term abroad.

The Learning Environment

Schulich’s programs are limited in size so that you will receive the attention necessary to realize your full potential. The average class size at Schulich is between 25 to 55 students. Schulich uses a variety of teaching methods including case studies, small group discussions and lectures.

Study Abroad

In the BBA program you will have the option of studying on an international exchange for one or two semesters during your third or fourth year. For iBBA students, an international exchange is a required part of the program. Exchange terms take place at one of our 55 partner institutions.

Careers

The Career Development Centre (CDC) will assist you with career management training. The Schulich CDC provides several opportunities for Schulich students to be equipped with the appropriate tools to find part-time, summer or full-time Employment Opportunities. For example, special internship fairs, career days, workshops, and company information sessions are organized that specifically cater to Schulich students. Industry-specific counsellors offer you services ranging from one-on-one advising to recorded mock interview sessions. You will increase your self-awareness in terms of your business interests, strengths and weaknesses. At the same time, you will learn how to research thoroughly your industry and companies of choice.
