Commerce Scope

Dear Shweta,
Which course you want to pursue is totally depends upon your area of interest.If you want get more job opportunities then go for BBA then MBA otherwise you can go for B.COM,BCA etc.
I have recently completed BBA from LPU and I would like to state that it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I have learnt a lot throughout this journey and whatever I have achieved in my academic as well as professional life, I owe it all to LPU. On that note, I would like to tell you about all the features that contributed to quality education and above all, an impeccable college life.
This course will give you an exposure in management field. After completing BBA, you can go for MBA. MBA will provide highly challenging job for you. Different specializations are there in MBA. If you are looking for a career in marketing, then MBA in Marketing is a good option,Because now a days mostly companies recruited students for marketing jobs.
They have Industrial Tie-ups with various reputed companies that give students the opportunity for pursuing live projects/ professional certifications.
Entrepreneurship projects are an essential piece of the educational programs and help students build up themselves as fruitful business individuals.
They have Collaboration/Tie up with the companies like NSE, Safe Educate, ICICI Direct, IDFC, etc. to give students the opportunity for pursuing live projects and/or professional certifications like NCCMP, NCFM etc.
The course offers specialization offerings in Marketing, Finance, Human Resource, Information Technology, International Business, Financial Markets, Operations, Retail Management, Entrepreneurship,Rural Management,Airport and Airlines Management.
Also, in my view, I think you should not worry about the placements. If you work hard in the course and learn as much as you can, any company visiting the campus would be happy to hire you. However, you must not neglect polishing your communication skills as well, because companies will check that in their interviews. LPU provides plenty of opportunities to its students to take part in events, competitions, fests in order to let them grow their personality and give them a chance to polish their skills.Around 550+ companies visit every year for such activities and campus-recruitment of students from LPU. Companies likes Colgate Palmolive, Hindustan Unilever, Godrej Consumer, SAP Labs, Asian Paints, Bajaj Allianz, Federal Bank,Moodys Analytics, Blue Star,etc.
