Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT)
In the wake of globalization, many economies including the Uganda’s economy continue to face enormous challenges that require invigorating business and management skills across the social, economic, and political spectrum. In this era, a number of entrepreneur opportunities have been created and others lost due to inadequate skills in business management owing to stiff competition.
The Bachelor of Business Administration and Management is infused with business knowledge, skills and attitudes which makes it unique and therefore able to produce graduates that possess both entrepreneurial skills as well as various skills and knowledge in various business disciplines for effective business start-ups and management.
