Bachelor of Science:
Business Administration
Concentration in International Business Management
Effective Fall 2011
  

The international business management concentration is built on the premise that effective business administration must recognize the multicultural dimensions of the workplace today. Students must therefore understand global issues, cultural, political, and economic differences, foreign management styles, and the international aspects of finance and marketing. Through classroom study and internship opportunities, students may explore these and many related areas. The four-course core concentrates on the fundamentals of international business management practice, intercultural communications, international financial matters, and international marketing. Upon completion of this course of study, students may seek positions in a multinational company at home or abroad. Students may also seek positions with international organizations - such as the United Nations, the Departments of Commerce and State, and the World Bank.
