Hi,
BBA stands for Bachelor of Business Administration and BBM stands for Bachelor of Business Management.
Both these courses are taught in different management schools and some schools give the name as BBA and some as BBM.
Some other institutes give it the name Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and some other Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration.
Therefore, BBA and BBM has more or less the same syllabus, the only difference is that in the case of BBM the candidates can take up specializations like HR, operation, finance, and marketing, but it is not the case in BBA, so you may consider pursuing any of these course.
Some of the subjects covered under BBA or BBM are:
- Business Organization
- Marketing Management.
- Financial Management.
- International Business.
- Business Law
- Human Resource Management, etc.
However, I would suggest that once you complete your graduation you should work for 2-3 years and then opt for MBA as it will further enhance your career prospects.
Lucrative careers are available for BBA or BBM graduates in many fields. A few of them are mentioned below:
- Banking.
- Budget Planning.
- Educational Institutes.
- Entrepreneurial Ventures.
- Financial Services.
The remuneration of BBA or BBM, students is dependent upon the type of organizations that takes them in.
Freshers will earn around Rs. 12,000 to Rs. 15,000 each month. With increase in experience individuals can make as much as Rs. 15,000 - Rs. 18,000 every month. This will go up as you gain more experience.

So, you may consider pursuing any course at undergraduate level as per your interest and liking.
I would suggest that once you complete your graduation you should work for 2-3 years and then opt for MBA, the advantage of this step would be that after working for few years you would know which specialization to opt in MBA that can further enhance your career prospects.

1. Education background of the students.

As a student you should give your 100% in whichever course you opt for, and if you do well then getting a good job with handsome salary should not be a problem.
