To strengthen their competitive edge in a global economy, US and
foreign firms must attract managers who possess strong
functional background, area training, and comprehensive
international business skills. The International Business (IB)
major at Philadelphia University is designed specifically to
meet these industry needs.
This program enables students to combine an international
business major with a traditional functional area such as
accounting, finance, management, or marketing.
The IB major consists of seven, highly integrated components:
• college studies (humanities),
• foreign language,
• area studies,
• the business core courses,
• international business,
• functional competence, and
• study or work abroad.
The program is unique because it brings together these seven
vital components which provides our graduates with the skills
and training industry wants.
Graduates traditionally have a sense of adventure, are adaptive
to new environments, and join global US firms, or foreign
companies operating in the United States. Firms generally pay a
substantial premium for graduates with the skills this program
offers.
This program is available in the day only. Check sheets are used
to summarize progress in the program. |
