This program gives you a wide choice of careers and the time to decide. It is designed to prepare degree holders from any academic discipline to work as managers in a broad array of functional business areas in both international and domestic organizations of any size. No prerequisite courses and no previous business experience are required. In this program students gain the knowledge, skills and experience necessary to manage the human, physical and financial resources and complex strategic and practical management issues of international and domestic businesses.
The first year covers a breadth of fundamental business knowledge and skill areas; the second year expands on that base with a variety of more complex and strategic international and global courses that have equal application in both international and domestic businesses making this a truly global business management program.
There are two, flexible four-week work placements: one in the first year and one in the second. They are designed to give you the hands-on practical work experience that employers desire. You may use these placements to try out different career fields and organizations or to specialize in one area. The choice is yours.
