After the first two years you will be awarded a Diploma in Business Studies and, after a further two years, the Bachelor of Business Studies.

Brennan GRADUATE
I chose the BBS because it gives you accreditation that’s recognised worldwide and it involves exams, which make you work that bit harder. I manage a medical practice with two surgeries and felt that the subjects covered in the BBS were
very applicable to my job. When you’re working and studying, much of the knowledge you gain is immediately applicable in the workplace and that makes the process far more interesting.
KEY FAC T 25% of graduates from the programme continue on to graduate study across a range of universities, including UCD.
