Бакалавр искусств в области бизнес-администрирования

Prepare for a career in business with our Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration.

At Bellarmine, our business administration students learn from faculty members who are also business professionals. Our location in Louisville also provides excellent internship and mentorship possibilities, which often lead to lucrative offers upon graduation.

The business administration curriculum centers on the understanding and application of fundamental business skills and includes among its core content courses that focus on Microsoft Excel and Analytics. Consistent with the Business School’s mission of programs in the Catholic Liberal Arts tradition and in recognition of the importance of the integration of the disciplines, business administration majors have the flexibility of pairing this primary major with another major or minor in a second field of study. Professional internships are an integral part of the business administration program. Internships provide students with relevant professional experience and employment opportunities upon graduation.

Bellarmine offers business students a unique educational experience: a broad-based liberal arts education supplemented by top-notch business preparation. This difference is viewed quite favorably by employers, who say they like our graduates because of their writing and critical thinking skills. The School of Business also is noted for rapidly incorporating innovations and business trends into the curriculum. For example, many employers today are encouraging their workers to earn MBA degrees; therefore, Bellarmine has introduced several programs that take entering first-year students to their MBA degrees in just five (or four and a half) years.

The business school was selected for inclusion in the 2019 edition of “Best Business Schools,” published by The Princeton Review and Random House. Furthermore, Educational Testing Service (ETS) released results of its Spring 2019 business-school testing, and Bellarmine students scored in the 93rd percentile.

Another important aspect to a business education at Bellarmine is the requirement of an internship and/or an international experience. We require students to have/acquire business experience—this can be accomplished via applied course projects, internships and/or course requirements as well as potential volunteer business projects too. This guarantees that you will gain practical experience while still a student, which makes you much more "marketable" upon your graduation.

The W. Fielding Rubel School of Business at Bellarmine University is accredited by the AACSB International (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), which places it among the elite business schools in the nation. Not only is Bellarmine the first and only private university in Kentucky to achieve AACSB accreditation, but fewer than 5 percent of business schools worldwide have achieved this distinction.
