Global Business Concentration (RBS)
GLOBAL BUSINESS
The global business concentration prepares students to manage effectively in a global business environment that is complex and changing. Building on a foundational course in international business, students can select from a range of courses that address issues of managing in a global environment such as cross-cultural management, negotiations, strategic alliances, and technology transfer. Students can also select courses in international trade or finance, procurement, and marketing. The department also regularly offers courses that involve travel abroad, combined with structured learning on and off campus. One such course offered through the department can be counted toward the concentration. This concentration is especially valuable for students who choose a concentration in a functional field (e.g., finance, supply chain management, marketing, etc.) and then pursue a second concentration in global business. This sends a signal to employers of having both functional specialization as well as a broad strategic purview of how to manage in a global economy.
Foundation Course Requirement: International Business is part of the MBA Curriculum and is required for all students who choose this concentration.
