The international business major pairs a strong liberal arts core with a variety of specialized classes centered on global business. Students typically pair the international business major with another major — such as accounting, finance, information systems, management, marketing, human resources, or economics — to have an area of specialization in global business. The major is set up so that students can accomplish the double-major within four years.
Students pursuing an international business degree are also required to take a foreign language course and complete a professional development program.
