BSc International Management
Overview

The program enables students to develop both macro and micro skills, evaluating geopolitical events and their impact, and developing cross-cultural management skills to organize, manage, and lead teams in uncertain international environments.
Programme
This program takes students further than traditional business and management programs by viewing management through a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous international lens. The program provides a strong grounding in international business and management through modules covering organizational behavior, marketing, operations and supply chain management, strategy, HR, data analytics, accounting, finance, and economics.
