High-quality academic international experience right from Year 1 of the BBA programme

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 17: From September 2024, students joining Excelia Business School’s BBA International programme will have the option of starting their studies with a 1-year academic experience in Australia, the USA or Singapore. Known as the Freshman International Path, this optional first year abroad is the result of a partnership between Excelia Business School and three leading establishments: University of the Sunshine Coast (Australia), San Diego State University (USA) and James Cook University (Singapore).

This first year will provide a high-quality educational experience, as all three universities boast AACSB accreditation and offer the opportunity to obtain a Certificate in Business/Management from the chosen university. Furthermore, the partnership agreements concluded by Excelia Business School enable those going abroad to study at a very advantageous cost, some 2 to 3 times lower than the tuition fees usually charged in these three highly sought-after institutions.

The possibility of international experience for virtually the entire BBA programme

 Choosing the Freshman International Path in Year 1 is an added bonus for students who are looking to accumulate different experiences in different countries/continents as part of their academic studies. 

 As a highly international programme, Excelia Business School’s BBA already offers a wide range of opportunities for students, thanks to: 

– A choice of 100 academic partners across 35 different countries for academic expatriation, 18 of which provide the opportunity to validate a double qualification

–  12 – 15 months of international internship experience 

– The opportunity to pursue an outstanding double degree through the BBA Early Immersion Track, with 50% of the programme taking place in Germany via an agreement with the Franco-German University network

This optional year of international experience offered right from Year 1 is a unique and innovative feature in the context of 4-year Bachelor programmes. Offering an excellent opportunity for students, it is aimed at those who are interested in pursuing international academic studies and gaining experience in different countries across different continents. This path provides significant added value for students with an international outlook who want to continue to enjoy academic excellence à la française said,  Tamym Abdessemed, Dean of Excelia Business School, Assistant CEO of Excelia.
