Curriculum Overview
The HKBUBBA Programme is designed to provide students with a comprehensive and future-oriented business education that prepares them for the challenges and opportunities of the rapidly changing world. It does not only equip students with a strong foundation in both quantitative and innately human skills, fostering their ability to adapt, lead, and thrive in an AI-driven business landscape, but also instill in students a sense of ethical responsibility, social impact, and environmental sustainability in the context of business practices.
Our curriculum combines basic business disciplines, with a substantial element of general education, and at least one important branch of business activities in considerable depth.
