Description

Douglas College’s Bachelor of Business Administration in Management will give students a solid academic foundation in the study of management topics as well as job-ready skills in an industry of their choice. This four-year bachelor’s degree will teach students essential business skills such as accounting, finance, economics, marketing, writing and critical thinking, and take a deep dive into management topics such as human resources, interpersonal conflict, innovation, change management and ethical decision-making. They will then narrow the focus of their studies and gain practical industry-relevant skills through in a concentration of their choice. Students will choose from financial services management, hospitality management, international business management, project management, supply chain management and trades management.  This program is designed so students can start in year one of the BBA, or complete a diploma in one of approved concentrations and transfer into the BBA for year three. 

Upon graduation, students will have met the Chartered Management Program (CMP) education equivalency (as outlined by the Canadian Institute of Management [CIM]), and will be prepared to write the industry certification exam for their chosen concentration (except hospitality management, as the industry does not have a designation). Industry certifications will make graduates more attractive to potential employers and increase their chances of getting the job that they want.

Students enrolled in this program may be eligible for a Co-operative Education designation. Co-operative Education involves alternating full-time academic and work terms. For information contact the Co-operative Education Office.
