The Bachelor of Business Administration with a concentration in Human Resource Management provides students with excellent training through foundational learning in management and a focused specialization in human resources. The curriculum equips students with the necessary skills and competencies to master the techniques and tools needed to manage the diverse functions of human resources. Learners will be prepared to manage human capital investments effectively and shoulder the responsibilities inherent in corporate management, particularly in processes related to recruitment, training, evaluation, and personnel management. Additionally, students will pursue a professional internship and complete an end-of-studies project in the field of human resource management.

Candidates wishing to acquire a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration must hold either a Lebanese Baccalaureate, French Baccalaureate, or an equivalent diploma. Additionally, students will need to take a language test to assess their proficiency in French or English, based on the program of admission.

Students must also undergo a Math Entrance Exam if their Math grade in the Baccalaureate is lower than 12/20. Failing this exam will require students to enroll in a Math Remedial Course during their first semester.

At the Antonine School of Business (ASB), teaching methods are adapted to meet the educational requirements of the courses and their respective levels in the curriculum. Formal education is supported by case studies, hands-on group and individual projects, as well as classroom presentations aimed at helping students master the course material and develop their communication and managerial skills.

The evaluation of courses varies depending of the nature of each course, incorporating periodic tests, final exams, and project submissions and defenses. Participation in class, teamwork, and the ability to extend beyond formal teachings are also considered in the evaluation process.
