Curtin University Business School has announced that it will offer a 3-year Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree through SLIIT INTERNATIONAL in Colombo commencing in February 2022.

Curtin is a world-renowned university ranked among the top 1% of universities worldwide and top 10 universities in Australia by the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) 2021. The QS World University Ranking (QSWUR) 2022 places Curtin among the top 200 universities in the world.

Curtin Business School is recognised as an elite global business school through its accreditation by AACSB International. AACSB accreditation is awarded to business schools that meet strict standards of quality academic and professional excellence. It is known worldwide as the most recognised form of professional accreditation earned by an institution’s business programs.

This means Sri Lankan students can now complete a globally recognised Australian business degree in Sri Lanka. This, indeed, is a blessing for Sri Lankan students when overseas travel for higher education is constrained due to health and security concerns. Alternatively, students enrolling in the Curtin Business program at SLIIT INTERNATIONAL may transfer to one of Curtin’s Australian campuses to complete their studies when international borders open.

In the first year of the Business degree program, you will explore core competencies in business, learn to use financial information to make informed and responsible decisions, and develop your business intelligence and analytical capabilities to interpret data in a meaningful way. You will complete management foundation units aligned to global trends, and develop skills across marketing, finance, human resources, project management and strategic management. You will graduate ready to meet the challenges of industry.

In addition to the core units, you will study three specialisations during the course. The specialisation includes International Management, Innovation and Entrepreneurship, and Digital Marketing. Specialising will enhance your skills and make you a highly sought-after graduate.

When you complete your degree, you can look forward to an array of career prospects in business management/administration; these include branch manager, business administrator, business consultant, operations manager, retail manager, sales manager, and senior manager.

The SLIIT-Curtin Bachelor of Business Administration course is scheduled for commencement in February 2022 at the SLIIT INTERNATIONAL Campus. Starting in November, students will be provided with a comprehensive training to develop skills necessary to complete the degree program successfully. Registrations are now open; for more information, students may contact SLIIT INTERNATIONAL student recruitment team through curtin@sliit.lk or by phone 076 555 8989.
