BBA (Retail Management)

“You walk into a retail store, whatever it is, and if there’s a sense of entertainment and excitement and electricity, you wanna be there.” - Howard Schultz, CEO, Starbucks
As the name of the program suggests, this program aims to prepare you with the knowledge and skills in retail. The science of retail involves purchasing, marketing, merchandising, operations, inventory control and staff management. The core curriculum of this program comprises topics, such as retail supply chain management, retail customer care and computer technology, among others. As the international market continues to grow and new products are introduced constantly, the need for trained people in retail is growing rapidly. Graduates in retail management would have opportunities to work as retail managers, merchandisers, apparel sourcing managers and independent retail consultants. The graduates of this program may also start a business and open their retail stores.
