Why Degree in Business Technology ?

       Unlike Bachelor of Commerce degrees almost all the other business management degrees make you specialized in single functional area of business organizations such as General management, Accounting, Marketing, Human resource management, Finance and Information Technology. However, as bachelors degree students you may not known exactly what is your career interest, what kind of job will suit you, and opportunities to switch through careers. Then again if you do not have clearer career path, traditional specialized first degree programs at least limit your starting career options. Even though not all degree holders not doing the post graduate studies in Sri Lanka, post graduate degrees are the best opportunity to specialize in your interested area. If you followed specializes degree then selection of post graduate studies also will influenced. Because generally a person who has hammer, sees everything as nails.

Bachelor of Commerce (Business Technology) degree is a hybrid degree that covers modern business, technology and innovation neurons of business organizations. It will enhance your knowledge in every key aspect of modern business organizations. It will apparently explain the aspects of present traditional business organizations, but it uniquely addresses the emerging technological aspects of business. Hence the student will be able to receive superior knowledge and understanding about present and future business organizations which will be higher than the knowledge and understanding they can get from any other business degree program available in Sri Lanka.
