Why study International Business?
The International Business major is for students with career objectives in the management of global business organizations.

Students who complete the International Business major will:

Have a basic knowledge of how to manage these risks.

The International Business minor is recommended for students who wish to work in organizations that are engaged in global business activities and want to be prepared to meet the challenges of ever-increasing global interdependence.
