Core Curriculum: BBA - Two Year Program

The following course schedule is for BBA students admitted Fall 2005; this will also be the course schedule for the final class of the 2-year BBA program admitted Fall 2006:

Junior Year

The first year of the two year BBA program is an immersion in the core business fundamentals. Students are required to complete 12 credits of core courses in the Fall term, and 9 credits of core courses in the Winter term. We recommend that students consider carefully before adding any additional courses in the Fall term of their first year. During the Winter term, there is more opportunity for students to select an elective or fulfill another degree requirement.

  • Business Law: Students must complete one of two Business Law courses (either LHC 305 or 306). This requirement be completed at any time during the two years.
  • 45 Business Credits: Students must complete at least 45 credits of Business classes in order to graduate. The core classes listed above as well as ACC 271 and ACC 272, which may have been taken before the BBA program, are included in the required 45. (The core, ACC 271 & 272, and the law requirement are a total of 36 credits, so an additional 9 credits of Business elective coursework is required.)
  • 120 Total Credits: Students must complete a total of 120 credits to receive their degree. In addition to the required 45 Business Credits, at least 54 of the 120 credits must be non Business coursework.
  • Distribution & Foreign Language Requirements: In addition to the Business requirements, BBA students are required to complete three of the following four requirements:
    • Humanities Distribution (HU) = 9 credits
    • Natural Sciences (NS) and/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) = 9 credits
    • Social Sciences (SS) = 9 credits (excluding Econ 101 & 102)
    • Foreign Language Proficiency = Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by U-M, or by completion of a fourth-semester college-level foreign language course. AP course work which meets fourth-term proficiency fulfills this requirement. See the LS&A Bulletin for further details.

Current BBA students can schedule an Academic Counseling Appointment if they have questions regarding any of the degree requirements.
