Prepare to Compete Globally: The International Business Program at CPCC

 

Degree | Certificate

The International Business Program prepares students for positions in interna­tional business through studies in foreign languages, social science, and business. The program includes courses in inter­national marketing, law, economics and trade practices. Opportunities for  study abroad are also available.

Benefits:  students learn language skills, geographic, cultural, political and economic differences among countries, how to process import-export documenta­tion, and basic aspects of international economics and business practices. Employment opportunities are avail­able in import-export departments of major companies, in freight-forwarder companies, customs house bro­kerage firms, international banking, franchising firms, accounting firms, insurance companies, state and federal government agencies, private foundations and other non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

Why Study International Business?

·         The world’s economy is increasingly integrated across national borders. Globalization is a fact of life. For example, some 400 companies in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County are foreign-owned, and they employ more than 24,000 people locally.

·         Many more domestic companies in the Charlotte area are actively engaged in international business, manufacturing and the import and export of goods and services.

·         The CPCC International Business Program provides the essential elements of a business admin­istration degree, with the added value of specialized study in international business, trade, law, economics, accounting, marketing, foreign language, culture and intercultural communication. Clearly, all are highly relevant in today’s world.
