The TAMK BBA in International Business is an inspiring and multicultural learning environment where the students learn basic business skills and acquire attitudes essential for success in today’s international enterprise.

The first year of studies offers a broad perspective on business operations. The second year of studies brings a deeper insight into international companies. At this stage, students start to create their own career path by choosing a specialisation out of four options: 

In the third year students go abroad for a semester at one of TAMK's 300 partner universities worldwide. In addition, students spend a further 5 months abroad in a practical training placement. Ideally, the employer will also commission the Bachelor’s Thesis – a project requiring students to apply their knowledge to solving a specific problem for a company.

Employment opportunities

The programme prepares undergraduates for demanding jobs in the fields of  e.g. sales, export, product management and customer relations. Our graduates also work as marketing or logistics coordinators, and as consultants or entrepreneurs. Even entry level managerial positions are within the reach of our most successful graduates.

Our business unit was chosen as one of the Centres of Excellence among Universities of Applied Sciences for 2010-2012 by the Finnish Higher Education Evaluation Council.
