The BBA in Entrepreneurship & Family Business curriculum is spread across six semesters, moving from foundational business concepts to specialised entrepreneurial and family business learning.
The early semesters cover management, accounting, economics, marketing, organisational behaviour and business communication, along with an introduction to entrepreneurship, innovation and family enterprises.

They learn to evaluate business opportunities, test concepts, develop prototypes and build Minimum Viable Products (MVPs).
The later semesters focus on family business governance, succession planning, wealth preservation, strategic management, scaling, diversification, digital transformation, change management and leadership. Founder interactions, investor feedback, pitch presentations, practical projects and a summer internship help students apply their learning to real business situations.
