Program Requirements
Students complete 45 credits (15 courses), which are divided among the
following three core areas:
- Area studies/international relations
- Foreign language
- International business and economics
CPIB allows students the flexibility to design a plan
of study that meets both their professional goals and personal
interests.
Area Studies/International Relations
Students have the opportunity to choose from more than 150 courses in
liberal arts disciplines ranging from the social sciences to the fine
arts. Upper-level literature courses in the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures
also fulfill the requirement.
For a list of courses that meet this requirement, go to
Foreign Language
Although much international business takes place in English, learning
another language helps students to better understand a country's business
practices. As students develop proficiency in a foreign language, they
also gain greater insight into other cultures.
Students typically take French, German, Italian, or Spanish, but other
languages will be considered for approval. Students also take upper-level
language courses focusing on literature and culture.
International Business and Economics
Students receive a strong foundation of knowledge in economics, and then move
on to take specific courses in their areas of interest in international business, such as marketing or management.
