    Choosing a career in commerce and business can be a challenging task as there are many excellent courses you can pursue in these fields. B.Com course and BBA course are two such courses that most students consider pursuing after completing class 12. BBA as a professional programme can ACT as a good foundational for the aspirants who will pursue Master of Business Administration (MBA) after completion of the course. BBA programme can be pursued by the candidates who have completed their 10+2 education in any stream. Also, there will be few institutes which might ask for Mathematics as a subject in class 12th. Bachelor of Commerce, popul

    In my opinion, B.Com has comparatively more career scope than BBA. While BBA emphasizes more on a general curriculum of Management Information systems along with Finance, Marketing, and Human resources, B.Com on the other hand, provides students with in-depth knowledge of Accounts, Administration, Finance, and Economics. So, It's your call or choice which course you want to opt for and from which University. If you are looking for the best University which offers both courses, I will suggest you to go Geeta to University, of Panipat. The University offers more than 70+ programmes in Management, Hotel Management, Computer Application, E

    B.Com is a more specific course whereas BBA is a better choice for students who want to pursue a management course later on and wish to develop their managerial skills. Therefore, it is always preferable to scan your aptitude, skills and interest before you choose any of the two. Hope it helps.

    If you are interested in the field of management or business then you should go for BBA and if you are interested in commerce or accounts then you should go for B.Com. Both the courses are good and provide enough job opportunities.

    If you want to do MBA or you have interest in business studies, then you can go for BBA. It is good. Otherwise, B.Com is also good.

    The difference between B.Com and BBA is that BBA is a management programme and B.Com is a commerce programme. After B.Com, you can do M.Com and MBA as well but after BBA there is only one option available for post graduation i.e. MBA. Plus, the choice between these wholly depends on your tastes. Go through the syllabus once and decide. Most of the subject are same between these two courses.

    Depends upon your interest. B.Com is better, because you can go for multiple alternatives after completion, where as in BBA limited scope basically students go for MBA after BBA.

    See, it all depends on your field of interest and what you wanna make your career in. If you find yourself suited for Accounting, field then B.Com is the best option for you but if you are into Management and hold Administration in an organisation BBA is the key. Both the courses are 3 years in duration. If your aim is to go for higher studies and do MBA then BBA will give you an edge, however, you can still pursue it with B.Com. If you are Interested to do ICWAI, CS course in future then B.Com Is best for You But If you can do BBA then you can learn some fundamental Management Skills, Which help you at the time of MBA.

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.
