Bachelor of Commerce Honors in Business Technology

The Bachelor of Commerce Honors in Business Technology is yet another pioneering and inno-vative degree program of the Department of Commerce and Financial Management, University of Kelaniya. The introduction of the Bachelor of Commerce (Special) Degree program in Business Technology  in  2008  (renamed  as  Bachelor  of  Commerce  Honours  in  Business  Technology  in 2020) was one of the pioneering efforts by DCFM to introduce the term “Business Technology” with a much broader definition than defining Business Technology as Information Technology.

The aim of this degree program focuses on modern and future fast-growing fields. The Bachelor of Commerce Honours in Business Technology is a hybrid degree that covers modern business, technology and innovation neurons of business organizations. Since the Business and Technol-ogy degree program equip students with broad theoretical knowledge and deep practical skills making them fully prepared to lead in the modern fast-paced global marketplace, it enhances the knowledge in every key aspect of modern business organizations. It will apparently explain the aspects of present traditional business organizations, but it uniquely addresses the emerg-ing technological aspects of the businesses. Hence, the student will be able to receive superior knowledge and understanding about present and future business organizations which will be higher than the knowledge and understanding they can get from any other business degree pro-gram available in Sri Lanka. Ultimately, students get distinct advantages of discovering thriving and fulfilling careers.

The main aim of the study program is to develop a graduate who has a comprehensive under-standing about commerce, business environment and IT enabled business functions while having inclusive knowledge about the enabling technologies, their implications and effects, ability to han-dle and develop scientific business tools, techniques, skills, method, and processes using their creativity and innovativeness to bring transformation in the businesses, employees, customers, environment and society.
