Overview

The Associate of Arts Degree in Business Administration provides students with a foundation in business knowledge. It also prepares students to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration or a related field. Students will gain an understanding of contemporary business principles and practices.

Students will be able to explore various topics in Business that includes business & professional skills, marketing, economics, technology, calculus, finance, and operations. Since Business requirements vary among institutions, students must ensure that the courses taken are relevant to the institutions they intend to transfer to.

Completion of this Degree requires students to take more than the minimum requirements for an Associate of Arts Degree, but the Program is easily modified to meet the requirements for direct entrance to Business at UBC or SFU.
