About this course
This three-year degree (SAQA ID 117928, NQF Level 7, 375 credits) combines general business administration with specialised project management. It covers planning and executing projects, budgeting and cost control, scheduling, risk management, leading teams, stakeholder engagement and business communication. You can study through day classes (full-time, a blend of on-campus and virtual learning) or evening and Saturday classes (part-time).
Microsoft Office certifications are built into the first two years (Word in Year 1 and PowerPoint in Year 2), and the final year prepares you for CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005). Students who complete CTU's Higher Certificate in Management can progress into the BBA. The degree suits school leavers with a bachelor's pass who want a business career with a practical focus, and working adults who manage projects.
CTU keeps classes small and teaches through real projects, so you get plenty of hands-on work and contact with lecturers. You finish with a national qualification plus internationally recognised vendor certifications, a combination employers look for. Check with your nearest campus that the programme runs there in the study mode you want.

Course intelligence for Bachelor of Business Administration in Project Management
Data-driven planning insights for this specific course: job market outlook, NSFAS funding, and how competitive admission is likely to be.
Job market outlook
Good sign: Programme or Project Manager appears on South Africa’s National List of Occupations in High Demand, a Department of Higher Education and Training analysis of employer hiring activity. Employers have been reporting real recruitment pressure for this role, which generally works in your favour once you’ve completed Bachelor of Business Administration in Project Management.

Admission chances
CTU’s intake and this course’s requirements with its published admission requirements generally leave more room than the most sought-after courses, so you likely have a reasonable window to apply without rushing, though applying early is always the safer bet.
These insights are estimates generated from South Africa’s National List of Occupations in High Demand (DHET, November 2023 draft), NSFAS’s published funding rules, and this university’s general applicant demand. They’re planning guidance, not a guarantee. Always confirm funding and admission specifics directly with CTU and NSFAS.
