BBA – Bachelor of Business Administration
The BBA Program
The SSM Undergraduate academic program consists of a two-plus-one-years’ study plan. Candidates will earn a Diploma in the first year followed by a higher Diploma in the second year. The program has its culmination in the third and final year with the transfer of credits to a partner university of SSM.
This final year, called Top-up Degree, entails the transfer of all academic credits earned during the first two years of studies, to the university granting the final degree based in the USA, UK, France or Germany. Talks are in works to add more final destinations and participating universities throughout the world.

INTERNATIONAL DIVERSITY
Teaching in the diverse classroom in a global economy means more than addressing issues of diversity or multi-culturalism. We must be aware of how we treat our students, of how our students treat us, and of how our students treat each other. These kinds of issues span disciplines and profession. They are important in all classes, whether the format is lecture, discussion or team projects. Each class, regardless of format or discipline, offers the opportunity to increase awareness of diversity and multi-cultural issues. Our students come from Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. We offer our participants an experience that prepares them to operate with ease, across borders and cultures.
WHO THE SSM BBA IS DESIGNED FOR
Most participants are in the 18 to 26 age bracket. Students seeking admission to the undergraduate programs must have completed secondary education equivalent to a high school level. The student must have a sound command of the English language.
