About Program
Program Overview
The Bachelor Degree in Business Administration (BBA) program provides students with opportunities to build the necessary skills for the future with a deep understanding of business and technological trends at a global scale and with hands-on experience via close links to the industry.
HBS students earn a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration (BBA) degree that qualifies them for a profession in business management and the opportunity to further continue their studies and earn a Master in Business Administration degree.
At HBS, we focus on integrating traditional business knowledge with practical decision-making, problem-solving, creativity, and strategic thinking while engaging in real-world projects. We create a learning environment that emphasizes collaboration and team building alongside the healthy competition.
Hard and Soft Skill Development
We recognize that business leaders today must not only master the hard skills needed to make data-driven decisions but also the soft skills needed to make them better collaborators. The curriculum takes the approach of the full development of the individual, placing emphasis on personal as well as professional growth. It prepares students for both a career and for graduate studies.
Real-Life Lessons and Best Practices
All courses are taught in English by leading business visionaries in small dynamic cohorts. Our professors have experience in successful business ventures, providing our students with real-life lessons learned and best practices. This background allows our professors to share their challenges and successes with the students, giving them a front-line education focused on experiential and student-centered learning.
Personal Interaction
Our faculty-student ratio is roughly 1-7, facilitating a deeper working relationship between students and professors than other universities. The small class size, approximately 20 students per class, provides students with optimum personal interaction, allowing professors to mentor and advisor a larger number of students.
HBS faculty develops their students 4IR skills through learning by doing and application, coupled with feedback and coaching.
