International
Trade
The M.B.A. in Global
Business with a concentration in International Trade prepares students
to work directly in the field of importing and exporting, or in one of
the many related fields that draw on this expertise. Students in the
International Trade concentration develop the skills needed for careers
that focus on trade-related issues in international banking,
multinational corporations and international consulting firms.
Students in this
concentration learn how to establish businesses that involve
international trade, ranging from firms that advise clients on aspects
of international trade to companies that directly import or export
products.
Careers in government are
also a possibility for International Trade concentration graduates,
including jobs in domestic agencies that regulate trade (U.S. Customs,
Food & Drug Administration, and the Federal Trade Administration)
and jobs in multinational government agencies, such as the International
Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization.
Students may complete the
International Trade program in either a traditional or fast-track
12-month format. The fast-track, 12-month delivery is offered on a day
schedule with some courses available evenings and is open to students
with business-related academic backgrounds. Admittance to the fast-track
program is in the September term only with all foundation courses
having been completed with a "B" grade (3.00 GPA) or better
cumulative average, prior to entrance into core and concentration
classes. The fast-track program format ensures graduation in one
calendar year. The program is set up with selected concentration
courses. Thus, all concentration courses may not be available in the
fast-track delivery.
