International Business

The International Business major gives you an awareness and understanding of business in other cultures and regions. It prepares you to respond to the intricacies of international business (including the impact of differing cultures and languages, issues posed by differing markets, and differing government regulations) within this rapidly growing environment.

You will gain an understanding of leadership, strategy, cultural diversity, communications and decision-making as they relate to contemporary international business issues, including financial management, employment relations, industry and trade in South-East Asia, and international marketing and management.

As the world is becoming 'smaller' with regards to advances in technology, employers are seeking graduates with international business skills. It offers a career in any trans-national corporation or large NGOs (non-government organisations) in Australia and overseas across most industries.
