The Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) Programs at CBA have been in existence ever since the College’s inception in 1967. However, the current curriculum has evolved over a period of time through a process of continuous improvement in response to studies regularly conducted about the labor market needs and expectations from CBA graduates. Each of the four year programs at CBA is designed to provide a structured, systematic approach to understanding international, strategic, political, economic, social, and cultural issues in the region, as well  as the world. They prepare graduates to assume responsibilities in a global business environment characterized by the rapid technological and social changes.

The CBA Programs provide an educational experience that enhances students’ analytical, conceptual, problem solving, and  communication skills. They also provide students with a broad base of knowledge topped with specialization courses necessary for pursuing professional careers in a variety of private and public organizations.

Coursework is exacting and the highest possible standards are expected. Students are encouraged to read extensively, to think deeply, and to discuss their ideas with faculty, as well as colleagues, and to be constatnly aware of the practical policy applications of their work. The curricular requirements for the Bachelor’s degree falls into two parts: lower division (first and second years) and upper division (third and fourth years). In the first two years, all students share a common curriculum designed primarily to provide a sound general education in basic liberal arts subjects. In addition, students complete prerequisite courses that form the foundation for upper division course work in business. In the last two years, students devote most of their study to the concentration of their choice.

CBA offers curricula leading to undergraduate Bachelor’s degrees in Accounting, Economics, Marketing, Management, Finance, Management Science, and Management Information Systems. In order to complete the degree in any of these majors, students must meet specific requirements in general education (64 credit hours), business core requirements (33 credit hours), major requirements (27 credit hours), and support of major area (6 credit hours). Overall, students must complete the requirements for graduation which is a minimum of 130 credit hours in total.
