BEd Business Studies (Accounting/Management options)

This page explains what the BEd Business Studies (Accounting/Management options) at SD Dombo University is really about. We look at the subject areas, how difficult it is to get in, and the careers it can lead to. All information reflects the programme's published entry competitiveness and the typical nature of business education degrees.

What a business education degree actually covers

Programmes of this kind combine business subjects with the skills needed to teach them. You can expect to study accounting, management, entrepreneurship and economics alongside teaching methods, curriculum design and educational psychology. The accounting option prepares you to teach financial and business accounting, while the management option focuses on organisational behaviour, leadership and business strategy. Graduates come out with a strong grasp of both business concepts and how to pass that knowledge on to others.

How hard it is to get a place

Getting into this programme is less competitive than many other degree options at the university. The admissions team publishes entry requirements, and as long as you meet the minimum WASSCE grades, you have a reasonable chance of securing a place. Because it is an education programme rather than a pure business degree, the applicant pool tends to be smaller, which works in your favour.

Where a BEd in Business Studies can take you

Most graduates go into teaching, typically as business studies teachers in senior high schools or business-related technical institutes. Others find work in education management, curriculum development, or corporate training in banks and companies that need financial and management education. Some use the accounting option to move into bookkeeping and finance roles, though the full BEd is primarily a teaching qualification.
