Globalisation strengthens the connection between companies from all over the world. It is time people understand the importance of international business.
International business degrees are shaped to give students practical knowledge about different business management practices from all over the world. In addition, candidates are prepared for business careers abroad or in organisations that are engaged in business on a global scale.
Moreover, international business is vital in order to understand different cultures and mindsets and ultimately become a global citizen.
A degree in International Business prepares you for a job in a culturally diverse business environment, which means that any graduate can benefit from opportunities in any country.
The advantage of an International Business course is that you are highly employable for most industries since the majority of skills acquired are transferable.
Candidates studying international business will also gain information and insight about the difficulties of starting and growing businesses from different countries, something which is of utmost importance for anyone who wants to make their business thrive.
International Business is usually a three-year commitment, depending on each university. Lately, there are institutions which offer the possibility of having a ‘sandwich course’, which basically enables the candidates to work abroad for one year in the industry, as part of their studies.
The purpose of the ‘sandwich course’ is to encourage students to step outside their comfort zone and work in a different culture and environment. In this way, they will understand other mentalities, as well as gain relevant working experience in the field.
I like my study program because I am learning management in the field of international business. I would be confident to say that business has been my passion since I was a teenager. And I do love some professors from my university because they were very helpful and supportive during my study. The student life itself has been good enough for me and some of my friends. Eventually, there is nothing much that we can do during the pandemic of COVID-19 to really have a student life at the university since we were studying online. The university itself is not really international because we have some situations that is been difficult for the International students and the university staff did not help us with that situations. My own career is getting better all the time and I would love to learn more and always try to get a better career.
