Bath - BBA offers best Business course in U.K?

Does Bath now offer one of if not the best business degree in the U.K?
It has 2 6 month placements, also the rumour of only the top 5% of student getting to study abroad is not true, as 3/4 of 4th year student got to go on the course.
Simply look at the recommendations on the website to see how good it is, in the top 5 business schools for a while, it's only a small time until Bath can progress even more.

What is everyone's views on it, and has anyone heard of any great BBA courses anywhere else?

Thanks. :smile:

Well other unis do the work placement thing too you know!
My mom works in Hewlett Packard and when she asked graduate recruitment people about which was more recognised, Bath or Warwick, they always said Warwick (well actually they said 'Bath does management?!'). Bath is a great uni, but it's still not that well known for having an excellent Management school.
Also if it's working abroad that floats your boat, you can always do an Erasmus exchange, they give you money for doing it and everything!

I'd disagree - Bath has got many big companies queueing up to recruit students doing the BBA. Many of the students go on placement are offered a job when they graduate, which saves the problem of competing against others with lots more experience when you leave university. In terms of employability, Bath is one of if not the best in the country in terms of business.

Hi guys!

So I have to make my firm choice in the next six days and i was inclined toward Warwickbecause of its world-wide reputation. Bath on the other hand attracted me because of its course structure but does not have a reputation equivalent to Warwick. I am an international student and am looking at working in India for a few years before post-grad because its almost impossible to get a job in UK.

Please advice me on the same ASAP
