    Both BBA and B.Com offer similar career Opportunity. If students are willing to do an MBA, then BBA might be the better option. But if the students interested to become a CA CS or CFA then B.Com will be a better option for students. BBA is a 3 year undergraduate degree level course. I have recently completed BBA from LPU and I would like to state that it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I have learnt a lot throughout this journey and whatever I have achieved in my academic as well as professional life, I owe it all to LPU. On that note, I would like to tell you about all the features that contributed to qualit

    It is purely the discretion of an aspirant, what to do after 12th either B.Com or BBA. BBA provides the administrative skill set whereas commerce degree B.Com instills the content of accountancy thereby leading to better options of placement in banking, tax auditor, etc. If you are good in accountancy, then B.Com is the right course for you.

    Hello!
    The main difference between BBA and B.Com is visible on the career prospects that are offered by each course. While BBA can direct the students towards a well-established management career, B.Com can open a wider avenue with several career options like CA Company Secretary-ships, etc. The Bachelor of Commerce degree is designed to provide students with a wide range of managerial skills, while at the same time building competence in a particular area of business. Most universities plan the degree such that in addition to their major, students are exposed to general business principles, taking courses in accounting, finance, busin

    Hi Ram, BBA is a very career oriented programme. All you need to opt an Institute with good potential. LPU curates quality education where salient features are as follows:
    Curriculum : If at all the curriculum is continuously upgraded and developed with consultations and feedback of industry. Since management is a highly dynamic field, you cant afford a programme which is stuck in obsolete technologies and syllabi. Pedagogy : The teaching pedagogy formal the backbone of how the programme is delivered, more the practical, better it is. Maximum exposure to practicals and internships more chances of becoming a well-rounded professional. Te

There are many good B-Schools like IIMs, FMS Delhi, ISB, SIBM, IBS Hyderabad, XIM/XLRI and LPU, etc. You can identify and check the eligibility norms of that institute and do accordingly.

    Hello Ramkinkar, Glad to hear that you are making the best of your course. For the sake of many, sharing a few insights. While the BBA course has a blend of papers from management, economics, marketing, human resources, finance & accounting, operations, international business, entrepreneurship, the B.Com (Hons) course delves deep into the world of finance and accounting with specific papers in Strategic Cost Control, Income Tax Law and Practice etc. To get you ready to face the industry. At IILM University, both BBA and B.Com (Hons) programs are aligned to IILM University's ethos of giving the students freedom of choice whereby they ca

Heyyy riya
Absolutely! Having a humanities background is no barrier to pursuing Fine Arts at Chandigarh University.

The programme welcomes students from all streams, including humanities, as long as they meet the minimum requirement of 50% marks in their 12th exams. Many humanities students find the programme a natural extension of their academic interests, as the curriculum often connects with cultural, historical, and social themes. For example, a student who studied history might bring unique perspectives into courses like painting or applied arts.

The university values creativity and passion over specific subjects studied in school.
