Which course is better among BBA and B.Com?

The Bachelor of Commerce is designed to enhance the ability to learn as the students study variety of subjects: accountancy, business administration, finance, economics and industrial policies. This course equips one with the analytical, communication and problem-solving skills to effectively identify issues, source information and to find efficient and practical solutions. After B.Com, the students can avail exciting and diverse post graduate opportunities like MBA, law, international studies, designing/merchandising, MBE, M.Com, finance, economics, etc. which will set them apart from the crowd and prepare them for success in the global marketplace. The industry takes them at par with the students having professional degree like BBA, hotel management, etc. and sometimes at higher platform if someone is from reputed college. All most all universities and colleges in India offer B.Com degree, therefore, chances of getting into the course is higher. Bachelor of Business Administration, on the other hand, is a professional course, and it is offered by a few universities and of these, only a handful of colleges / institutes offer quality course. Choosing the right institute is key to landing up in a good job. The BBA course is tailored in consultation with representatives from leading organisations, ensuring that you graduate with an industry-relevant degree. Students get practical experience, read assigned materials, attend seminars, and prepare an internship report. Students are encouraged to attend leadership training workshops and conferences; including, but not limited to, public speaking, group dynamics, and problem solving, and evaluating techniques. These skills not only help to fetch a good job, but also, the students remain at an edge over others while studying MBA. However, all this happens only when the students get into a reputed college. After BBA, the students can get into marketing, human resource, general management, finance, etc. This course, however, restricts the students from other postgraduate study opportunities. If you are satisfied, please up vote the answer.

Both BBA and B.Com have their own merits and demerits. It depends entirely on the student's area of interest and skills before choosing either of the courses. If making a career in management is your priority then you should go for BBA as it is the foundation of management and has been specifically designed for MBA aspirants. B.Com, on the other hand, is much more diversified and has a wider scope for specialisation for post-graduate study. Thus, it is advisable to first chalk out your skills, aptitude and area of interest before taking up any of the courses. Instead of looking at the money making aspect while choosing a course it is more feasible to choose a course that will give you long-term benefits rather than a short-term.

B.Com is more inclined towards accounts, taxation and it is preferable to opt for CA or higher studies M.Com to get a desirable job where BBA is business administration and will be focused more on business related topics. A decent job can be grabbed if you have done BBA from a recognised institute, though MBA would again be necessary for a desirable job.

It depends on you, I would suggest you if you are commerce student then continue with that stream if you are not interested in commerce stream then do BBA. If you want to do MBA in finance, marketing, banking and financial services then B.Com Is better course for you. In B.Com, you will study these subject as per your interest so you got an idea about the subject and that will you help in your MBA. Suppose in future you want to do M.Com so BBA graduates are not eligible for M.Com but if you will select B.Com then in future either you can go for M.Com or MBA depends on you. Bachelors of Business Administration (BBA): This is a 3-year Business administration course helping to build a base in core business disciplines.

So, f you are interested in getting an exposure to the various business aspects and get a hold of the concepts of business administration, this course might be your choice.

B.Com is better than BBA, because there is more scope in B.Com. You can pursue B.Com, and then you can do CA or M.Com or MBA or you will easily get job after B.Com itself in many companies.
