Hi,
As per your query, it seems that you have completed 12th from science stream, but you do not wish to go with medial or engineering field.
So, as per your profile I would suggest you to pursue BBA, and once completed you should work for 2-3 years and then opt for MBA, as it will further enhance your career prospects.
The BBA program usually includes general business courses and advanced courses for specific concentrations.
The degree is designed to give a broad knowledge of the functional areas of a company, and their interconnection, while also allowing for specialization in a particular area.
The degree also develops the student's practical managerial skills, communication skills and business decision-making capability.
Some of the subjects covered under BBA are:
- Principles of Management.
- Business Organization.
- Marketing Management.
- Financial Management.
- Human Resource Management.
- International Business, etc.
Lucrative careers are available for BBA graduates in many fields. A few of them are mentioned below:
- Banking.
- Budget Planning.
- Educational Institutes.
- Entrepreneurial Ventures.
- Financial Services.
The remuneration of BBA students is dependent upon the type of organizations that takes them in. Freshers will earn around Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 12,000 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.
