Key Summary
Introduction
The Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) can be tailored as a 4-year degree in the United States or a 3-year degree in the United Kingdom. IPAG has chosen to base its BBA program on the United Kingdom model.
This program is recommended for those who are considering a career abroad or in an international environment. The training is general, but the third year allows students to specialize in two areas, which they can then pursue further by studying for an MBA.
All courses are taught in English and the environment of the program is multicultural, as IPAG’s BBA brings together a student body of more than 30 nationalities.
IPAG’s BBA also, and above all, allows students to obtain a dual degree and 2 Top Up Programs on the 3 year, the IPAG one and a Bachelor of Arts (BA with Hons) from a prestigious British university which can open the way to a Master’s degree.
Students preparing or holding a French baccalaureate who wish to apply for the 1st year of the BBA program must do so via the Parcoursup platform by selecting the “IPAG Business School Bachelor of Business Administration” program.
