The International Business Program is an advanced track program geared to prepare motivated students for entry into the global economy, helping them to understand business within the context of culture and ethics. Students will learn through hands-on experiences and will expedite their education. They will earn honors credit for all courses and college credit for select options. OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM Learning will extend outside of the classroom through several adjacent learning experiences such as the Speakers' Series and project-based short-term learning experiences. Students also have the opportunity to participate in both domestic and international internships. They will put their skills to the test through supervised service projects, including the Capstone Project, where seniors participate in on-location consulting projects in emerging markets.
