B.S. in Business Administration

City University of Seattle offers a 4-year Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (B.S.B.A) program. The program is built on a solid core of management education combined with coursework that provides a broad understanding of business. The B.S. in Business Administration program surveys the contemporary business disciplines of accounting, finance, marketing, economics, law and international relations. Students strengthen skills in communication and decision-making and learn about the central importance of behavioral factors in business.

In addition, graduates of the bachelor program are well-equipped to continue their studies in the graduate degree programs in a number of administrative, technical and commercial fields. CityU’s BSBA program lasts 4 years and a student studies 3 subjects per term. All BSBA classes are taught in English.

Admission requirements:
