B.S. in International Business with German Studies Minor
The international business major has been designed to allow students to address the challenges of an increasingly global market environment. Blending the College’s liberal arts and sciences foundation with a strong internationalized business curriculum, the major presents many challenging and exciting options while providing an essential perspective of diversity. The requirement of an interdisciplinary or language minor gives global insight to the development of a unique international business education.
The German studies minor provides in-depth study of German history, literature, culture, society, and business, including socio-political issues in reunited Germany and a look at the societies of contemporary Switzerland and Austria. Students may select courses taught in English or German, depending on their interests and abilities.
General Education Requirements: 50 hours.
International Business Major Requirements: 45 hours.
