International Business Degree
The Associate Degree In International Business is designed to provide students and business practitioners, including those already involved in International Business, with practical “hands-on” exposure to the world of international business. Classes focus on businesses that import and export. Students learn the fundamentals of international business, culture, marketing, finance, law, and logistics. Different countries and cultures are explored. Specialized topic areas (for example, marketing, financing, law, and logistics) are a sequence of short classes that should be taken in order. The program prepares students to take the NASBITE Certified Global Business (CGBP) Credential Exam. DISCLAIMER: This is a sample map based on the 18-19 catalog.
