14.11.2024

Mastering the Business and Trade study programme at OPTIMA Distance College opens up great opportunities for starting your own business and implementing business ideas. However, students often decide to continue their professional development and plan to pursue higher education at a university. Let's take a look at a few possible options for further education, as well as popular areas and specialisations. Our recommendations will help you make the right choice and achieve your professional goals.

Benefits of obtaining higher education after college

Graduates of OPTIMA College have the opportunity to continue their studies at higher education institutions. Usually, further studies are carried out on a shortened programme. This means that it is possible to obtain a bachelor's degree in business and trade not in the traditional four years, but in just three or even faster.

One of the main arguments in favour of continuing your studies is to expand your opportunities in the field of entrepreneurship and trade. With a higher education, your chances of business success increase as you gain deeper knowledge, expand your professional networks, and develop new skills necessary to run a successful business.
In addition, thanks to the fundamental knowledge gained at OPTIMA College, your university studies will be easier and more interesting. You are already familiar with the core disciplines of the Business and Trade study programme, so you will be able to adapt to new, more complex topics more quickly. This greatly increases your motivation and self-confidence.

Options for higher education institutions

After completing the Business and Trade programme at the college, graduates have the opportunity to study at a bachelor's degree programme at universities, institutes and academies. It can be a multi-disciplinary educational institution (classical or technical) or a sectoral one (economic). A bachelor's degree will allow you to continue your studies at a master's degree in the future, which will open up even more prospects in the field of entrepreneurship and trade.

Students can choose both public and private institutions to further their studies in business and trade. Each of these options has its own advantages: public universities often offer stable academic programmes and affordable tuition, while private ones attract students with innovative methods and individual approach to students.
You can also consider studying entrepreneurship and trade abroad. Students can expect to be admitted to a foreign university if they speak English or another required foreign language, have a certificate of language proficiency (TOEFL, IELTS, etc.), and their academic performance is at a high level.

Choosing a speciality

After studying at the college under the Entrepreneurship and Trade study programme, students have a wide range of specialities to choose from.

  1. Economics - studying economic processes and laws, analysing market trends and developing skills to make informed business decisions.
  2. Management - studying the methods of managing enterprises and organisations, developing leadership and strategic planning skills.
  3. Marketing - analysing markets, consumer needs and developing effective marketing strategies to promote goods and services.
  4. International Trade - study of international markets, export-import operations and international business.
  5. Finance and Banking - analysis of financial processes, lending, enterprise finance management and banking risks.
  6. Accounting and Auditing - development of accounting, financial control and audit skills.
  7. Logistics - organisation and management of supply, transport and storage of goods.
  8. Insurance and stock market - development of skills in the field of protection of property interests of individuals and legal entities, risk management and investment in the stock market.

This is just a small list of the main specialities that will help you deepen your knowledge of entrepreneurship and trade, as well as develop the skills necessary for a successful career. In fact, there are many more areas, and each student can find the path that best suits their interests and professional goals. Thus, continuing your education after college is a good decision for those who want to succeed in the field of business and trade.
