The Bachelor of Business Administration program is a four-year undergraduate degree that allows you to select a concentration that suits your interests and career goals. Also, as a graduate of this degree, you will be able to gain advanced standing toward appropriate professional designations.

Businesses need professionals who can act on the increasing connectedness of global markets, business practices, resources, and information. Our program is designed to provide skills to cultivate a successful career in international business in Canada and worldwide.

Canada is a big player when it comes to the international trade industry; in fact, the Canadian total international trade (exported goods and services) in 2020 was worth 683 billion dollars. This industry has substantially grown in the last 20 years and has increased the need for skills in all the international trade areas.

The international business management program will ready students for careers with all kinds of internationally-oriented organizations; for instance, local business environments engaged in aspects of international trade, licensing or financial agreements, multinational enterprises, banks and other international financial institutions, various governmental organizations and companies having subsidiaries in other countries.

PSW Opportunity

You may be eligible for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP) if you graduated from a designated learning institution (DLI) and want to stay in Canada temporarily to work.

Graduation from a DLI doesn’t automatically make you eligible for a PGWP.

How long your PGWP is valid for depends on the length of your study program or the expiry date of your passport, whichever comes first.

If your program was less than 8 months (or 900 hours for Quebec credentials)
You aren’t eligible for a PGWP.

If your program was at least 8 months (or 900 hours for Quebec credentials), but less than 2 years
We may give you a PGWP that’s valid for up to the same length as your study program.

For example, if you completed a 9-month program, we may give you a work permit for up to 9 months.

If your program was 2 years or more
We may give you a PGWP that’s valid for 3 years.

If you completed more than 1 program
You may be able to get a PGWP that combines the length of each program.

Each of the programs you completed must be

PGWP eligible and
at least 8 months (or 900 hours for Quebec credentials) in length
You can’t get a PGWP if you already had one after completing an earlier program of study.

Admission Requirement / Eligibility Criteria

International Applicants
Applicants must have graduated from an education institution accredited by one of the regional or national accrediting bodies, or the Ministry of Education (or equivalency) of that country.

Due to differences in world educational and grading systems, satisfactory completion of secondary education is not necessarily an acceptable basis for admission to the first year. Acsenda reserves the right to determine whether an applicant is eligible for admission and to determine what transfer credit, if any, may be granted to international applicants with prior post-secondary education.
