Check if you qualifyThe Diploma in Business Studies is a practical introduction to the world of business and management. It is designed for SHS leavers who want to build a foundation in business skills and open up a range of career options.
What a business studies diploma actually covers
A diploma in business studies typically introduces the core areas of business: how organisations operate, basic accounting and finance, marketing, human resources, and communication. You learn to interpret financial information, understand customer behaviour, and plan business activities. It also builds practical skills in numeracy, problem-solving, and writing, which are useful in any workplace.
How hard is it to get a place?
Entry to this diploma is less competitive than for many other programmes. That means places are available to a wider range of applicants, and your chances depend on meeting the basic qualifying grades rather than competing for a few spots. Similar diplomas at Koforidua Technical University and Sunyani Technical University are also less competitive, so you have good options.
What you can do after you finish
Graduates of business studies diplomas typically go straight into junior administrative and supervisory roles in banks, shops, insurance companies, and government offices. The qualification also provides a stepping stone for further study in business, management, accounting, or marketing.
