Environmental changes and competency needed by the Business and Industrial World (DUDI) require the University to respond to those. Likewise with the Bachelor of Business Administration Study Program, in an effort to align and improve the competence of students, the 2023 Curriculum Workshop is needed to accommodate the competencies required by DUDI. These competencies will then be derived from the graduate profile and learning outcomes which will ultimately lead to new courses.
