Business Administration: International Management

The International Management specialization prepares students for global management careers by developing their understanding of how the international context affects businesses and their employees. Due to the increasing globalization of the last decades, the international context now affects all aspects of business. The International Management specialization combines the latest theory of international management with practical applications.

Under the supervision of world class researchers and teachers, students will complete advanced international management courses designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to manage different parts of a business and how to compete in different contexts. In addition to core courses, students can select from several interdisciplinary electives that will provide them knowledge in areas of personal interest. The program also has a strong practical component. Students need to apply the theoretical tools to a practical situation by developing an international expansion strategy for a real company or advise a company on an international management problem. Furthermore, students will work in different group projects to develop soft skills for working in multinational teams.
