International Business

Offered: On campus, online

Consider an international business profession
Globalization has made cross-border business more common than ever. Most international business careers involve sales and marketing but, as businesses expand around the world, more entry-level management positions are opening. While some positions involve extensive travel, in many cases, international business is conducted via technology, so little or no travel may be required.

We prepare you
A degree in international business will prepare you for careers in all aspects of the global economy, including commerce, government, and industry. It can lead to employment in international management, marketing, sales, advertising, and public relations. A career as a successful global operator in international business requires you to be:

  • Willing to learn about other countries' customs and cultures
  • Patient, perceptive, and good-humored
  • Adept at learning new languages and be an excellent listener
  • Intuitive about verbal/non-verbal communications
  • Flexible, able to see things from different perspectives
