What is the difference between a BSBA and a BBA?

While both a bachelor of science in business administration (BSBA) and a bachelor of business administration (BBA) are undergraduate degrees that prepare you for the business world, there are a few key differences between the two. A BBA takes a broad look at business education, with the curriculum covering topics from marketing to finance to entrepreneurship, while making sure that you have a solid grasp of business fundamentals. A BSBA, on the other hand, tends to focus more on math and analytical skills while still helping you build a business foundation. As a rule of thumb, BBA programs tend to be more specialized and focused on business-specific courses, and BSBA programs put more of an emphasis on math and science courses.
