THE Aboitiz School of Innovation, Technology and Entrepreneurship at the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) and the C.T. Bauer School of Business at the University of Houston (UH) are combining forces to launch a pioneering double-degree undergraduate program for intake in May 2023.
Designed to develop the next generation of leaders for a future that is powered by data, with the ability to solve user and consumer problems using innovative technology solutions, the pioneering double- degree Bachelor of Science in Data Science and Business Administration (BSDSBA) and Bachelor of Business Administration Major in Management Information Systems (BBAMIS) leverages off the strengths of both world-class institutions.
An Asian pioneer in management education, AIM is the first school in Southeast Asia to receive accreditation from the U.S.-based Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), globally recognized as having the world’s highest standards. The Institute offers an immersive, practitioner- oriented education that is different, yet fully relevant to empower its students to thrive in challenging, rapidly shifting environments.
UH is the largest public research university in Houston and the third largest university in Texas. Founded in 1927, the 95-year old university is recognized as an R1 institution by the Carnegie Foundation for its high level of research activity and its being home to a Phi Beta Kappa chapter.
Interested high school seniors should submit an accomplished Online Application Form available at go.aim.edu/bsdsbaform, a two-minute video essay, a personal statement of 500-650 words, and a photocopy of any government-issued identification card.
