C. Main Subjects of the Commerce & Marketing BA Major
In Module C - the Main Subjects of the Commerce & Marketing BA Major, are the common core and
alternative elective members of all Commerce & Marketing Curricula in the undergraduate Bachelor Level
Education Programmes of the Hungarian Higher Education System. It contains the following essential
subject groups:
The C.1. Common Module of Commerce & Marketing BA Major contains all those
subjects, which must be taken by students gradually in the second and third academic year of
their BA studies. All these subjects should be present in all Commerce & Marketing BA
Curricula in Hungary, and students must take them to achieve the BA degree in this major. In
these subjects students learn essential business topics, like market research, consumer
behaviour, marketing communication, marketing strategy and international marketing. They get
important knowledge about product assortment & pricing, quality management, logistics and
the introduction to retailing management. They have to accomplish the basics of marketing,
product assortment & pricing policy and the introduction to retailing management subjects, and
achieve altogether more than 100 ECTS at the end of the 4. semester, They have to fulfil these
requirements to get the opportunity and choose the preferred specialisation within the major.
In the C2.1 Institutional Module, the subjects are an obligatory add-on subset determined by
the Senate of the Budapest Business School. The subjects of this group are: “Services and
B2B”, “Marketing Strategy”, “Public Relations”, “Project Management” and “Controlling of
Trading Companies”. We strongly believe, that these subjects should be taught to reach the
required level of knowledge and skills for the BA degree.
In the C.2.2. Professional Alternative Modules students have to extend their knowledge by
choosing at least two of the offered subjects.
Attention please!
1) Read carefully the information in which semester (fall or spring) are the subjects offered in
English. You can find them in the 4. row of the identification section of the outline. The
majority of subjects are offered either in the 1.; 3.; 5; or 7. (fall semester) or in the 2.; 4. or 6.
(spring semester). We can offer some of them in every semester. If you not only failed the
exam, but the teacher has denied his signature for the subject, you must retake it in a special
course. Please, read therefore the curriculum map carefully and choose those subjects into your
individual study time-table, which help you to avoid unnecessary delays or bad lucks in the
study sequence of subjects.
2) Read carefully the prerequisites of subjects to avoid situations in which you can’t pass exam
successfully, because of the lack of exam from previous subjects. Even ERSAMUS students
should think on this issue, because they may take subjects totally free, but the lack of
prerequisite subject knowledge might cause difficulty to pass the exam, and get the necessary
ECTS.
3) Read also the language knowledge requirement of the various subjects. This might cause
also problems, especially if some ERASMUS students are coming mainly to learn English
language during their stay at BBS. This is an important objective of ERASMUS mobility,
however some courses in the main study require a C2 level of English language knowledge.
This requirement is only indicated implicitly in the identification section of the subject outline.
You find hints on it by investigating the semester number of the subject offered. Subjects
usually offered in the 5.; 6. or 7. semester require C2 level of English language skills.
