The future is bright for business students at apiit – and here’s why
View(s):At a time when becoming an entrepreneur and having your own ‘start up’ or finding a lucrative job in another country is the dream, the Business Degrees at APIIT Sri Lanka awarded by Staffordshire University in the UK meet the needs of the ever-evolving business world. Now more than ever, the business world needs versatile, forward-thinking and enterprising leaders capable of tackling the tough social, environmental, and business challenges that they – and the world – will face.
To shape these leaders the world truly needs, APIIT is taking contemporary learning to the next level. In partnership with the School of Justice, Security and Sustainability of Staffordshire University, APIIT offers three cutting-edge degrees in business innovation and entrepreneurship, digital and social media marketing, and finance and business enterprise. The modern curriculum of these degrees combined with sound practical experience ensure that you step into tomorrow as a future-ready professional with the skills and confidence to tackle the challenges of the ‘next normal’.
BA (Hons) Business Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Innovation and enterprise lie at the heart of today’s successful businesses. In a world that changed overnight as it was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, volatility, complexity and uncertainty are the norm. Leaders, therefore, must know how to improvise through innovation.
The BA (Hons) Business Innovation and Entrepreneurship degree will develop students’ ability to think flexibly and creatively. Students will graduate with an entrepreneurial mindset, which employers have realized that they need in their employees – the knowledge to grow a business and keep nourishing it.
BA (Hons) Digital and Social Media Marketing
Another repercussion of the Covid-19 pandemic was the expedited growth in digitalization, as all businesses and industries, including education, transitioned to online platforms. Since the onset of the pandemic, skills in digital and data more generally have been rising sharply and, with the growth of markets and technologies, the opportunities for digital marketing professionals is only going to continue to expand.
The BA (Hons) Digital and Social Media Marketing degree will equip students with the creative and technical skills and experience that employers demand of modern marketing professionals. Students will graduate with experience in digital marketing analytics and strategy, search engine optimization, social media marketing and digital content creation.
BA (Hons) Finance and Business Enterprise
Graduates with a degree in Finance are invaluable to any business venture – they are the go-to professionals in an organisation for any important business decisions. With this degree, you can tick all the boxes of employment expectations: high salary, high rate of employment, and high projected number of jobs for the upcoming decade.
But finance and accounting are no longer just about taxation and the management of financial capital. The BA (Hons) Finance and Business Enterprise degree will give students a deeper understanding of financial concepts that underpin modern business enterprises. Students will explore the crucial role of finance in organizational decision making and the pursuit of competitive advantage, and gain expertise in FinTech and Digitisation, Sustainable Accounting, and Forensic Accounting, among others.
