Aditya Aman · Answer

Don't be fooled by someone. B.Sc, BHM, BA and BBA these are the four different degrees that you might get after graduating from a hotel school. There is no such difference between B.Sc and BHM. Literally, there is no difference but there are some colleges which provide Bachelor of hospitality and tourism, so here they focus on tourism subject at a great extent. In BA, you will be learning the same but when talking about BBA in hospitality then some colleges have majors and minors like finance, business management and retail. So if a student is doing a BBA in hospitality then, that may be of a larger extent and the chances of employment would be certainly higher. In India, I know it's not that famous but if you want to prove me wrong then just research about some European hotel schools, they prefer BBA over B.Sc.
