Which is better course BBA or B.Com?

Question

Puneet Singh · Answer

B.Com (Bachelor of Commerce) is a simple traditional course for a better understanding of commerce (I. e. Accountancy, Economics, etc. ). And makes you capable of future ventures in this field. BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) is designed to provide a basic understanding of management and to train the students in different skills, which inculcate entrepreneurship skills and decision making. After B.Com you can enter into different streams with this degree. You can get into banking, civil services, MBA, law, designing/merchandising, M.Com finance, economics many more. However, if you want to foray into management, a BBA followed by an MBA from a reputed college is the right career path for you. There are many universities that offer this programme, but I recommend LPU as I found LPU is good for the BBA or B.Com. Programme. The Business School of LPU is accredited by ACBSP, Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs from the USA ensuring quality education and industry-experienced faculty members. The Training and Placement Cell of the University has a team of highly qualified and experienced professionals. The training & placement cell of the university conducts many programs for Enhancing employability such as Professional Enhancement classes, industry experts, Workshops, Mock Drives, Guest Lectures, Summer Internship, and many others. Students can avail of the opportunity like summer programme, credit transfer, international exposure, etc. The university has been ranked high by outer agencies also with regard to placements of students. Around 650+ companies visit every year for campus recruitment of students from LPU. LPU provides ample opportunities to each and every eligible student of LPU. Companies like Colgate Palmolive, Hindustan Unilever, Godrej Consumer, Asian Paints, Bajaj Allianz, CEAT, Rallis India, etc. Visit LPU for recruitment purposes. Eligibility Criteria: You should only have passed with 50% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with English or equivalent, subject to qualifying LPU NEST for admission in the BBA programme.

Dear Aspirant, in my opinion all the specializations are having their own merits. Best specialisation is subjective thing precisely depends upon students because all the students having their own choice / preference of subject. B.Com. Is the good choice of subject if you are having strong control over CORE subjects related to specializations like Accounting, Banking And Financial Services, Economics, Finance, Financial Markets etc. Similarly BBA is also a good choice having all the above mentioned specializations. But here you will earn more proficiency in terms of management from Day 1. There are many BBA Specializations available but I personally would refer you one of advanced course in BBA I. e BBA (Hons. ). Being alumni let me share that, BBA (Hons. ). Course curriculum is recently being re-framed by Lovely Professional University keeping in view the advanced Industry requirement. Some of upgraded features of this course is mentioned as offered by LPU.
1) Professional/Industry certifications
2) 3 to 5 Courses to be taught in online/blended mode by foreign faculty or senior Industry experts
3) Startup/Entrepreneurial Venture
Seed Fund: SEED money upto Rs. 3 Lacs may be provided, based on competition, to a student/group of students to start a business.
4) International Immersion : 05 - 07 days after 2nd year to Singapore/Dubai or any other similar country.
5) Field visits may be planned to different companies, events etc.
7) Technology/Software oriented Courses (core and electives) like Office Automation Tools, Workshop on Data Management, Business Analytics, Data Visualisation
8) Well structured short term, intense training sessions designed to prepare students to participate in Business Competitions. LPU do offer B.Com. (Hons. ). Course too with all the above mentioned unique features of BBA (Hons. )
Last Year Placement record of both BBA (Hons. ). & B.Com. Hons. Course in LPU (Till Date in-spite of Pandemic Situation):
the highest Package offered was 19.25 LPA (Deshaw India Pvt. Ltd. ) in last year. Now it's completely upto you about the selection of course at the end. In my opinion you must select the course based on your future career preference either core Management or master in commence domain. Hope this helps !

In today's day and age, getting a B.Com degree is crucial for a commerce student, but it is not enough. It is not easy to find high paying jobs for B.Com graduates if one has not chosen the right courses after bcom. This article will help you know more about after b.com jobs and salary details. Completing a degree cant promise you a great career after b.com. One has to take up post-graduation or professional certificate to have a well-established career after B.Com degree. After B.Com you can enter into different streams with this degree. You can get into banking, civil services, MBA, law, designing/merchandising, M.Com finance, economics many more. If you want to pursue Professional courses (Such as CA CS or CWA), it is recommended to take up B.Com as they both have a lot of syllabus in common. Also, the college timings B.Com will be convenient for you to take up heavy tuitions for these professional courses.
BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) is designed to provide a basic understanding of management and to train the students in different skills, which inculcate entrepreneurship skills and decision making. While with BBA you cannot do that, as college timing will not be adjustable to these professional courses. Also, the syllabus will be entirely different. However, if you want to foray into management, a BBA followed by an MBA from a reputed college is the right career path for you. If you want to get a job right after your graduation then B.Com is a better option. (At the Graduate level, B.Com offers better job opportunities as compared to BBA)
Both the subjects have career prospects but it depends from where have you pursued your higher education from. There are few colleges that offer promising career along with this course. As an alumnae of LPU I found students both from B.Com & BBA being placed in companies like Decathlon Sports, Exide Industries, Emami, Eye-Q Vision, ITC Limited, Janalakshmai Financial Services, Kelloggs, MRF, Naukri, Moodys Analytics, WNS Global, Writer Corporation, Nivesh Group, DeShaw and placed on an average package of 3.5 LPA.

In the 21st century where one has so many options or choices available, it is going to be difficult to decide which course one must pursue, but when you have an ultimate motive of pursuing an MBA, then I must advise you to go either for BBA or B.Com course because they will give you a better feel and understanding of the most of the subjects, which largely could be referred in MBA as well. MSOB Lovely Professional University, is always appreciated because of the faculty members, placement and curriculum. BBA or MBA is something which is completely relatable to your surroundings, it's a management thing. If you say marketing is a specialisation in MBA then marketing is all around us.

To get this level of thinking, you need to broaden your thoughts, you need to be a part of brainstorming activities and you have to start learning from your surroundings. And this is where the role of faculty members or environment or university is help upon. As per my personal experience I am able to observe such level of thinking in a Management guy from Lovely Professional University. Main features of MBA at LPU are :

LPUs business school is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and programme (ACBSP). Recently Ministry of Human Resource Government of India Ranked Lovely Professional University No. 2 in India in Management. This course will give you an exposure in management field. After completing BBA you can go for MBA. MBA will provide highly challenging job for you. Different specializations are there in MBA. If you are looking for a career in marketing, then MBA in Marketing is a good option, Because now a days mostly companies recruited students for marketing jobs. Every year Around 550+ companies visit every year for such activities and campus-recruitment of students from LPU. Companies likes Colgate Palmolive, Hindustan Unilever, Godrej Consumer, SAP Labs, Asian Paints, Bajaj Allianz, Federal Bank, Moodys Analytics, Blue Star, Zomato, Berger Paints, Marico etc. Also, in my view, I think you should not worry about the placements.

However, you must not neglect polishing your communication skills as well, because companies will check that in their interviews. LPU provides plenty of opportunities to its students to take part in events, competitions, fests in order to let them grow their personality.
