What Is The Difference Between Public Administration & Business Management?

Simply put, the main difference is that public administration focuses on government management whereas business management focuses on the management of corporate organisations. I am unsure whether this question is focused on these from a course perspective or a career perspective, but I will give examples of what is covered in the courses which will in turn help understand what is expected in the job roles.

Public administration is a subject which leads directly to jobs, with the same title, in the government field. Those who enter into public administration courses cover all aspects of what is expected of them should they enter into a role in local, state and even federal government. Modules cover subjects ranging from economics to law and well prepare students to move into careers in other areas in addition to government. Topics covered include; finance, safety and national defence, immigration, tax, law and foreign affairs amongst others.

Business management, on the other hand, focuses more closely on the general management of private sector companies. Although some of the topics covered may sound similar they will come from a much different perspective. For example; finance is still widely covered in business management courses; however, rather than looking at this from a 'how do we rescue the economy of the country through legislation' you would focus on aspects of paying wages and working out budgets and profit margins.

So as you can see the difference is basically a case of private versus government; this is quite a major difference and the courses, and indeed the job roles, vary fairly significantly.

Public administration is primarily oriented towards public service organizations namely non governmental firms and other such projects which are usually not oriented towards profits and are meant for philanthropic organizations where as business administration is focused towards equipping students with the tools that are meant to contribute towards making profits for their employers and setting up profit oriented businesses.

Administration is a common word in public administration and business administration. The difference is sector one is more toward profit and other is more towards service
