International Business & Management

Introduction

The International Business & Management major is an interdisciplinary program that combines the study of economics, business, and management with the study of foreign languages and cultures. The faculty in the major have embraced a set of core values: engage in critical thinking; cultivate global perspective; foster personal growth; inspire creativity and encourage innovation; and appreciate and understand cross-cultural differences. These values are reflected in the core purpose of the major: to prepare students to be personally and professionally successful.
