Businesses depend on effective leadership to grow and prosper, which puts graduates of our Business Administration diploma program at an advantage. As a trained business administrator you’ll be able to lead and contribute to initiatives across all functional areas. Your assignments—in class and after graduation—will challenge you to develop strategies and offer effective solutions. A strong foundation in business administration allows students to focus on their interests and specialize in a specific business discipline in year three of the program.
You will get grounding in core business disciplines including marketing, human resources, accounting, finance, and economics. You will examine operations from a CEO perspective and hone teamwork skills by preparing a strategic analysis. You’ll also work independently in your area of interest such as human resources or finance.
Practical assignments include:
This is a business diploma, built on a common platform of a solid business education – principles of management, marketing, business law, finance mathematics and microeconomics. This common business platform is shared with other business diploma programs in year one and is expanded on in year two. Students will then shift their focus and begin working towards their specialization in third year.
