Program Structure

The curriculum consists of 10 to 16 courses (30 to 48 credit hours) that balance management theory in an international context with applications in a broad spectrum of organizational settings. The program contains three components: (1) a set of six prerequisite courses that may be fulfilled partially or completely, with a student’s previous course work at the undergraduate or graduate level; (2) a common core of eight international courses including a capstone experience; ( 3) a short-term international business study abroad course; and (4) a single elective course taken from a selected list of leadership and liberal studies courses.

Entry into the program requires the student to have earned a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university. In addition, a grade of “B-” or better must have been earned to meet a prerequisite. Students needing to take one or more prerequisites may not count these courses towards the minimum ten-course degree requirement. Although each student’s timetable and abilities are different, it is possible to complete the program in less than two years.
