Short Description

Why BBA Global Business?

The BBA Global Business programme offers a globally oriented curriculum and opportunities for students to develop a global mindset, think strategically and contribute to companies doing business internationally. Our application-oriented courses prepare the next generation of managers to lead global teams. In the Global Business Consultancy Project, for instance, students will actually work in a multinational corporation and get involved in solving real business problems.

Students have opportunities to enhance their leadership and management skills while working with others from different cultures through study tours, executive forums, career development workshops, structured exchange programmes, internships, and case competitions. Students are offered three semester-based overseas exchange opportunities* (one compulsory and two optional) and take part in lots of other international immersion opportunities to widen their global exposure. High performing students can receive full sponsorship for studying at MIT Data Science Lab and Harvard Summer School.

Students can apply for admission to the Joint Bachelor's Degree Programme between City University of Hong Kong and Columbia University. Upon completion of this joint degree programme, students will receive the dual awards conferred by Columbia University and CityUHK.

* Subject to fulfilling the requirements for participating in the exchange studies.
