Description
The International Business Certificate
Program offers a unique opportunity for
students to gain exposure to international
business through a combination of
coursework and travel in an overseas
setting.
The program is open to College of Business
degree students who are interested in
international business.
The Certificate consists of 21 credit hours,
which must include an overseas experience

During the course of the overseas
experience students may take up to 6
credits of course work (or their equivalent)
which would fulfill the requirements of the
Certificate.
