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.
It’s quite an average varsity, quite like any other in SA it doesn’t stand out in anyway… I honestly don’t like the horrible relationship between the SRC and the school governing body, that’s really my main problem strikes have always interfered with the academic timetable putting pressure on us as students… There’s honestly nothing I like about UKZN except for the lecturers, my lecturers were pretty good teachers and great human beings. So I can say the staff at UKZN is what I like about UKZN… I would probably recommend it to someone, since the fees are not too high and the quality of teaching isn’t that bad.

Ukzn is regarded as one of the traditional universities with racism and sometimes needs are not met, now I have issues with the housing department from February and until now I’m suffering from that other than that academically wise there are no problems

View moreThings re forever changing and you have no idea if the information you have right now might be useful cause I had to retake a module after I was informed that there was no special exam only for they to approve it in May when I had registered. It’s the incompetence of staff for me
View moreI have been with this institution for a while and it is a very good institution however the amount of academic work Tend To Be overwhelming. There are certain programs available for students that help with such academic problems I would recommend it to someone else.
