This study investigates the impact of course preferences alignment on the academic
performance and career certainty of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration
and Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneur students at the Technological University of
the Philippines-Manila. The specific focus of this study will be second (2nd) and third
(3rd) year. A total of these respondents 173 students. The study used descriptive
correlational methods approach to examine the relationship between students’ course
preferences, academic success, and confidence in their career paths. The challenges
that students in the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) and
Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship (BSEN) programs encounter are examined
in this study, along with how they affect their academic achievement and career
choices. The analysis finds students do well academically, with the majority achieving
outstanding grades and exhibiting confidence in their career prospects, while facing
work-related concerns. Support networks like peer interactions, career counseling,
mentorship, and internet resources are essential for assisting students in navigating the
uncertainties and obstacles of the workplace. In the face of adversity, students
demonstrate resilience, and their academic performance seems mainly unaffected. The
value of good institutional support and individualized advising in helping students
close the gap between academic learning and career readiness is evident in our
findings and is crucial for their future success in professional as well as academic life.
The study suggests that aligning academic programs with students' interests enhances
not only their academic performance but also their confidence in pursuing the kinds
of careers for which they are preparing. Recommendations include: strengthening
mentorship programs; providing more robust career counseling; and fortifying online
platforms that serve to "link" good "connections" between students and “career-ready"
opportunities. Future research is encouraged to explore the long-term career outcomes
of students in aligned academic programs.
