Heriot-Watt University Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration (BBA)
An intensive two year programme leading to a British university degree.
This degree programme provides firm foundations for any career in business and is particularly attractive to those seeking a Bachelor's degree that can be completed in two years rather than the usual three. Taught by WLC under licence from Heriot-Watt University (see page 12), which awards the degree and provides the course material, this is an excellent opportunity to become a graduate of a top-ranking university and to qualify for entry to Masters' degree programmes.
Please note: Because the early stages of the Business Administration, Business & Finance, and Accountancy degrees are identical in terms of syllabus it is easy to switch from one to the other at the end of the first semester, or even later. Experienced academic staff are on hand at the College to provide guidance with making such important decisions. Applicants should therefore not be concerned about making the wrong choice at the enrolment stage.
