All majors complete a Senior Capstone project. This project involves integrating prior knowledge, preparing written reports, and making a public presentation. For majors in International Business and Culture, this requirement is satisfied by successful completion of BA 471 Internship and BA 495 Policy Formulation and Administration, both of which are required courses for the major.
High academic ability students may be eligible to complete the International Business and Culture degree in 3 years. The three-year format lightens the financial burden for students seeking to reduce college costs. Each student’s program is individualized based on numerous factors including AP, IB or dual enrollment credits earned during high school. Accelerated degree students work closely with two academic advisors to produce a program of study that fits their needs and interests.
The International Business and Culture degree expects students to spend a semester or year studying abroad. Exciting opportunities are relatively easy to arrange through the Office of Global Engagement. International Business and Culture students have studied on every continent except Antarctica. Students have found a variety of programs in a wide array of programs.
Students can schedule study abroad in any semester, except spring of the senior year, which is when the Capstone course is taken. It is possible to schedule consecutive or non-consecutive semesters abroad and still graduate on time. It is also possible to do an internship abroad in the Fall, Spring or Summer. Since it is important that you plan ahead, you should visit the timeline for study abroad and consult with your advisers as early as possible to make their intentions known to the School of Global Business and the Office of Global Engagment.
