A Business Administration (BBA or BA Business) major is the most-awarded U.S. undergraduate degree, with about 390,000 conferred annually. Programs typically require a common business core (accounting, finance, marketing, management, operations, business analytics, business law, ethics) plus a concentration (Finance, Marketing, Management, Entrepreneurship, Supply Chain, etc.) and an internship.
CAACSB-accredited business schools meet the highest standard; AACSB accreditation is held by about 5 % of business schools worldwide. Business majors are versatile, every industry hires them, and the major pairs naturally with double majors in Computer Science, Economics, or Communications.
