The University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB) is a top-ranked, new-generation private university located in Bangladesh.

The ULAB is highly regarded by its students for its warm and supportive community and multiculturalism. Students can find a rich learning environment and a rewarding lifestyle in its large, green campus, while making lifelong personal and professional connections. The availability of good quality accommodation and recreational facilities in the surrounding areas along with a wide range of eateries and entertainment options, has made the ULAB a preferred destination among students seeking university education, reads a press release.
According to the press release, the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) programme is the largest academic degree course at ULAB. The ULAB BBA is proud to position itself uniquely among any other equivalent programmes for a few reasons. The first being its adoption of an OBE (outcome-based education) curriculum, which offers interactive learning opportunities both inside and outside the classroom. This approach features student involvement in research projects, regular industry visits, participation in various training sessions and workshops delivered by renowned industry experts, networking and career events, volunteering activities promoted through club membership, and the development of essential skills through numerous personal and professional tutoring sessions. Several courses on essential skills and general education are embedded in the BBA curriculum.
Another uniqueness of the ULAB BBA is its liberal arts-inspired industry-focused curriculum, which teaches students to think critically, trains them to look into matters from different perspectives, and develops among students the necessary social and interpersonal skills that they need to progress in their lives in Bangladesh and beyond. The liberal arts approach to learning allows BBA students to choose to focus on prominent business areas like Accounting, Finance, Human Resource Management, Marketing, and Supply Chain Management, as well as to select a minor from a non-business area such as Computer Science and Engineering, Economics, English, Media Studies and Journalism, South Asian Studies, and Sustainable Studies. This unique blend of business and non-business areas offers maximum leverage to BBA graduates to kickstart their careers.
The ULAB BBA further offers a welcoming and supportive learning environment to build students' confidence for future success. Here, a cohort of world-class business faculty members instil moral values among students and orient them to the practicalities of life and career. The faculty members have studied and taught in globally renowned universities, and most have significant corporate and consulting experience. This enables the ULAB BBA to offer its students industry-oriented teaching and effective career guidance. Students also get the opportunity to work closely with their teachers on research projects, the outcomes of which make a truly tangible difference in developing the sustainability of society and businesses. Furthermore, ULAB offers 5% to 100% merit-based scholarships, with 65% of all ULAB students being beneficiaries of one of its scholarship schemes.
The life of the ULAB BBA students is stimulating. A strong collaboration with the industry is one of the main fortes of the BBA programme. The BBA programme regularly organises seminars and workshops during which students can meet and engage in conversations with business leaders and notable social personalities. Students also get ample opportunities to share their passion or try something new with 22 clubs that are ready to offer something to pique their interest. Whether it is a startup idea or an entrepreneurial dream, the Business Incubation Centre and the Centre for Enterprise and Society are some of the places where BBA students can get the necessary support and guidance in launching, expanding, and scaling their business and social initiatives. The floodlit professional-level cricket, football, and basketball grounds and indoor games facilities are available for hosting tournaments as well as for regular practice. Besides, fully air-conditioned and Wi-Fi-enabled modern classrooms, a well-equipped library, an IoT and other computer labs, psychosocial counselling, career services, an in-house cafeteria with several outside eateries, and shuttle bus services are just among a few of the superb facilities that students enjoy on campus. In fact, students can never run out of options and opportunities to learn or discover new things, and all these exciting things can be found in the serene and eco-friendly lush green campus in Mohammadpur.
BBA graduates leave ULAB with more than just a degree qualification due to the university's excellent performance in various international quality frameworks such as Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Ranking and World Universities with Real Impact (WURI) and ISO 9001:2015. Indeed, all these unique features set the ULAB BBA programme apart from other undergraduate business ones in the country. The top priority of the ULAB BBA programme is to prepare students for their life and career goals by nurturing them as responsible and caring global citizens with a lifelong love of learning, and, with great pride, it does so very well.
