This concentration provides a strong foundation in the current issues and problems that managers face in an increasingly global marketplace. The orientation is towards a practical application of basic managerial principles. A variety of international cultures are studied with particular attention to conducting business in these cultures. Students will have the opportunity to analyze business activities across cultures, social and environmental consequences of location decisions, and the alternative uses of resources. Students that complete this program will have the tools needed to make strategic choices required of managers when entering new markets and competing in the overseas environments. An integral component of our program is the required internship or practicum.  Both of these will afford the student the opportunity to travel overseas and study in different cultural and economic settings.
