How BBA specializations work

A specialization, like a college major, is a specific set of subjects on top of your core BBA. You’ll need to complete 26 core BBA courses as well as four specialization courses, that’s a total of 30 courses. Each focused series of courses includes hands-on projects and culminates in a specialization with your degree. The courses concentrate your knowledge in a particular area. How to choose a BBA specialization at Nexford? Choose from one of eight BBA specializations below.

To build our BBA with specialization, we analyzed 30 million jobs and surveyed industry leaders – including those from Microsoft, Citibank, and Unilever. A Nexford BBA is designed for highly motivated professionals ready to kick-start their work lives. So, whether you’re jumpstarting your career or launching a startup idea, you’ll learn how to succeed in modern, global business, regardless of your physical location.

Upon graduation, you’ll walk away with a specialization certificate on top of your BBA diploma. Plus, after you graduate, you can even top up your degree up with another specialization – that's two specializations and a BBA degree!

I got attracted to Nexford because I was looking for an online program that is flexible. I’m not someone who is a traditional person. I’m not a traditional learner. I like to learn at my own pace. And I like to learn hands-on.

Taking a BBA specialization at Nexford

We’re no ordinary university! We make things simple so you can focus on what’s important: your goals! At Nexford, you can start learning straight away and send us your documents later (in exceptional circumstances). If you’re unable to immediately provide us with your transcript or diploma, you can just upload your government-issued ID and pay your application fee.

What happens next? After your first course starts, you’ll have 60 days from enrollment start date to send us your missing information, such as a diploma or grade transcript. 

  • We need proof of your graduation: this can either be your high school graduation or college graduation. Alternatively, proof of your General Educational Development certificate (GED) or equivalent exam, such as HiSET or TASC: valid copies of your official diploma and transcript in English. Documents not in English must be accompanied by official translations, such as those provided by a validated institutional official or embassy.
