Programme description

This programme equips students with the fundamental concepts and basic knowledge underlying the study of business administration. It also prepares them for further specialization in professional areas. Graduates possess the practical and intellectual skills necessary to serve as front-line or middle managers or supervisors in private and public enterprises.

Students who complete their studies at the Associate Degree level are well-prepared to continue on to study at the Bachelor's Degree level at the OUHK. Since the School's Associate Degree programmes are articulated with its Bachelor's Degree requirements, all credits earned at the Associate level can be applied to a related Bachelor's Degree.
