Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA)

The BBA is designed to offer a well-balanced exposure to the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to operate effectively in a general management environment or as a foundation for postgraduate studies in Business Administration or related areas. Three majors, namely, Business Management, Marketing and Human Resources Management set a broad foundation for a conceptual and functional understanding of management issues. These three areas are developed over the three levels (years) in an integrated manner that reinforces lateral learning to achieve the set outcomes of the qualification.

In addition to the major streams, students are exposed to subjects such as Risk Management, Project Management, Financial Management and Leadership Development, selected to align the qualification to the demands to the contemporary business organisation. The BBA is an NQF level 7 qualification.

Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) (Major: General)

The purpose of the Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) degree is to provide a broad educational foundation to students in the field of commerce, including various key discipline areas such as business management, accounting and law. The qualification has been designed to provide the knowledge base, practical competence and application skills that would enable students either to enter the labour market or to pursue further studies in this field.

The current drive to expand the South African economy as well as current global developments require the development of people with general business management skills who can be accommodated in any economic sector. The ‘General’ Major provides a strong foundation in general business principles and the required accounting, marketing, economic and quantitative skills. Additional electives are available for people who have a need for knowledge in a specific area as well. The BCom is presented at NQF level 7.

The first is to cap a Bachelor degree with the skills and knowledge required to operate at a more senior level in the business environment. The second is to provide an academic bridge to further study at Master’s level.

The curriculum and design of the programme ensure that this qualification equips present and future business leaders for successful careers in the South African economy. The PG Dip reflects a diverse student body and addresses the transformational needs of the South African economy. This is a (new) NQF level 8 qualification.
