Globalization is a fact of economic life. While a student may not begin his/her professional career in a non-U.S. country or hold any international responsibilities, the impact of globalization is a daily reality. The international business emphasis exposes students to diverse global perspectives, challenges and opportunities that impact all organizations. Complementing the business curriculum, the international business emphasis focuses on the application of this knowledge in a global context. The comprehensive experience recognizes and integrates advanced language study, experiential education and elective coursework covering globally relevant topics.
Undergraduate business majors must complete a minimum of 9.0 credit hours and the following:
A business-oriented semester or summer study abroad or Kenan-Flagler global immersion study trip during the years in the business school.
Foreign language completion through Level 4.
Nine (9.0) credit hours of international business courses (internationally themed business courses taken outside the U.S. count toward these 9.0 credit hours).
