Curriculum and Program Requirements

The Associate in Arts in Business Administration provides options for students who want only two years of college study and students who are not certain about their degree objectives.

This degree program requires that all freshman and sophomore core business courses and business prerequisites, as well as University core requirements, be completed with an average grade of “C” or better.

Two-year business study at the University of Bridgeport provides many advantages not usually available to community college or two-year college students.

All the resources of the university are available to two-year students. This includes planning/placement services and all of the social, sports and extracurricular activities of the campus.

Students receive all the guidance and advising of a small, private two-year college, while completing their studies in the environment of a major university.
