which is better B.com(hons) or BBA????

hello! rudra

Both BBA and B.com are 3-year undergraduate degree course. BBA is a professional course focusing on theory of Management Information Systems, Finance, Marketing, and Human Resources where as a B.com is a traditional course which focuses on the theoretical knowledge about fundamental subjects of commerce such as Accounts, Administration, Finance, Economics, and Industrial Policy.
Job Prospects after doing BBA- You can secure an entry-level managerial positions in Banking Sector, Consultancy Firm, IT Companies, Advertising Agencies etc. Growth opportunities will increase if you will plan to pursue an MBA degree from a credible institute.
Job prospects after doing B.Com- As the B.com degree provides a solid theoretical grounding which can be brilliant for careers in finance, taxation or accountancy B.com graduates can work in different industries such as Banks, Consultancy firms, Tax Practitioner, Junior Accountant etc. Growth opportunities will increase if youll plan to pursue CA/ICWA/CS/CFA.



Coming to the question-Which is the better course?

Both the courses are equally rewarding, highly paying and has a lot of potential in terms of growth. There are two important things which you can keep in mind while choosing from B.com or BBA course for yourself. They are as follows-
Credible Institute-Always try to take admission in those colleges which have high placement records, credible professors, practical exposure, disciplined atmosphere, interactive sessions etc. For instance- A BBA course in private college with decent placements is always better than a B.com degree from not so renowned university.

Identify your Subject Orientation- If youre inclined towards accounts, finance and tax related fields then a B.Com degree would be a better option for yourself. You can further take up professional courses such as CA/CS/ICWA/CFA to enhance your core field knowledge. However, if you wish to be at a managerial position one day such as in the field of marketing, sales, human resource, finance, supply chain management, etc, then a BBA plus MBA degree would be a great combination.
