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.
The university is a very welcoming place from the start. I enjoy attending lectures and seminars because I feel intellectually stimulated by the content and sometimes even challenged. You can ask questions about the topics at any time during the lectures and/or seminars and the staff is always happy to help. The workload is okay and you can always contact the library for support whether this is academic support or subject-related support.
However, the technical parts of my course tend to be more dull but that’s to be expected and although they aren’t the most enjoyable part the lectures try to make them more interesting by sending readings in the form of podcasts or videos.
Overall, I would recommend this university 🙂
View moreThis is a brilliant university! It’s a great historical campus in London, and the best campus in the UK. Their student service is excellent and staffs are very friendly. Lecturers are so helpful. Recommend this varsity to study here for a future business leader.

There are loads of societies to get engaged in which is a positive!
The organisation is terrible, lack of lecturers, for example for a whole term for core module, sometimes the emails are not being answered… This year has certainly been worse than the first year for me. The strikes did impact us on a big scale over 4 weeks. The money was not worth it.
I would not really recommend Greenwich…
