Overview
The Bachelor of Business Studies (BBS) is an undergraduate business degree offered by selected Indian universities. It develops broad knowledge of management functions and may place greater emphasis on analytical, market or project-based learning than similarly named programmes.
What students study
Students commonly study accounting, economics, business mathematics, statistics, finance, marketing, organisational behaviour, operations, law and strategy. Electives, surveys, case projects, presentations and internships may allow focus on finance, marketing, human resources or international business.
Duration and study options
BBS is commonly three or four years. Full-time and some recognised distance options may be available. Compare the exact curriculum, research or capstone work, specialisations, internship responsibility, employer links and how the university distinguishes BBS from BBA or BBM.
Eligibility and admission
Applicants generally need Class 12 or equivalent. Mathematics, English, minimum marks or other programme-specific conditions may apply. Selection may use CUET-UG, university aptitude tests, qualifying marks, interviews and other notified processes.
Career and further study
Graduates enter marketing, sales, finance support, operations, consulting support, business analysis, human resources and entrepreneurship. Quantitative, presentation and internship experience are valuable. Options include MBA, specialised management master’s degrees, finance, economics, analytics and professional business qualifications.
