Business Administration (BBA)

The Business Department announces a new BBA degree in business administration.  The BBA degree in business administration is designed to allow a student to enter as a freshman or transfer into the program after two years of study in an associate degree business program.  Students receiving their AAS or AS business degree will be able to transfer into this program and receive the BBA in a minimum of four more semesters.  

The BBA in business administration is designed to provide graduates with the management, administrative, and technical business skills needed to succeed in positions of leadership and responsibility in business and industry as well as governmental and not-for-profit organizations, and graduate study. 

As a college of technology, Alfred State College's mission is to prepare people to succeed in technical careers.  An emphasis has been placed on lifelong learning as an essential skill for any graduate due to the rapid pace of technological advancement and an increasingly global society.  The business administration program reflects both concepts very well by developing graduates with managerial and technical skills and the ability to stay abreast in the dynamic field of business in today's economy.

Future employment prospects for graduates of business related baccalaureate programs through the year 2014 are very favorable.  The job prospects include Administrative Services Manager, Business Managers of Artists/Athletes, Business Operations Specialists, Financial Analysts, Financial Managers/Specialists, General and Operations Managers, Loan Counselors/Officers, and Marketing Managers, to name a few. 

A laptop computer is required for students entering the business administration program. See laptop specifications.
