FIM Business School has launched a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA)
programme at its new campus in Greater Mumbai. The programme focuses on
producing a workforce for the industry in areas of data science, marketing technology,
financial technology and digital business. “To me, those who could not make it to a top
engineering school like IITs, it makes a lot of sense to pursue this BBA, which saves
three years of their time and acts as a gateway to a professional career,” said Dr Atish
Chattopadhyay, Director, IFIM Business School. The curriculum is crafted to the
current industry requirements while also integrating liberal arts streams aligned to
the curriculum of the US universities. The programme will be the first in the country
to offer super-specialisation in areas like big data analytics and blockchain, market-
ing technology, financial analysis and technology, digital transformation and robotic
process automation.
