Why Choose Global Business Studies?
Globalization
Our world is getting smaller as travel simplifies and the Internet expands. Understanding our global similarities and differences helps us better provide goods and services to foreign consumers. All business, even domestic business, is affected by the global market.
Complementary Subject Matter
Global business studies complements every major in the School of Business. Many of the courses that are required for business majors overlap with global business requirements. Studying economics, finance or marketing on a larger, more global scale will enhance your understanding of the material and provide you with a better idea of how different cultures work.
Travel Opportunities
The best global business programs in the country have a required course outside of the country. Manhattan offers study abroad programs and an international field seminar for business students. Past trips have gone to places like Spain, Australia, France and England. Learning abroad with the School of Business may give you the opportunity to:
- Visit the international headquarters of global companies
- Meet foreign business leaders
- Practice a new language
- Learn about different business customs and methods
- Present on your experience at home
