Our students call our classes challenging, stimulating, and - most of all - interactive. You'll learn through case studies, group discussions, and team projects. Sitting next to you in an SBS classroom will be a select group of students from diverse backgrounds.
 

Students who successfully complete the one year program, obtain a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. This degree gives them the opportunity to work in the fields of marketing, finance or management or to continue with an MBA program.  The AAE program has been designed for working professionals, therefore classes only take place during evenings.  This allows the students to keep their full time jobs.

Assessment

In order to see that these objectives are reached each academic year, outgoing students complete the CBE exam of the Technology Fluency Institute. Year after year, SBS students score above national average. It is our ongoing mission to continue through this process,  to improve our academic quality and results. Indirect measures are coming from the thesis defense and presentation, which gives an overview of the knowledge the student acquired during his/her  Bachelor studies. Also, alumni surveys are conducted to analyze the placement ratio. During the past year, employment opportunities were reduced but despite the recession, students still managed to get good job placement. We further need to strengthen our ties with the industry.
