The international business concentration within the Bachelor of Business Administration degree prepares students to engage in conducting business across international borders. In addition to core business knowledge, students will deepen their understanding of international business practices and the opportunities that global markets offer. This concentration covers from traditional international business to emerging markets.
Advisors strongly encourage students in this concentration to take advantage of opportunities to travel internationally, study abroad and develop competencies in other languages. Program faculty include academics from a variety of countries with experiences in multinational companies. The right mix between academic credentials and corporate business experiences put our professors above many other institutions. The university has institutional arrangements for semesters abroad with other higher education institutions including the Copenhagen Business Academy.
Students will build an expertise in a variety of business facets, including international aspects of finance, economics and electronic commerce. Students will also experience challenges businesses face when entering new markets, increasing their cultural intelligence and prepare them to deal with ambiguity.
