International Business
Are you looking for a business degree that incorporates the study of business, economics, and a foreign language? A B.B.A. or Minor in International Business may be the perfect companion degree for you!
A concentration in international business is a perfect fit for students who want to travel in international business careers. An international business degree teaches students about business trends and practices, preparing them to work with a variety of backgrounds and cultures. The program at Southwestern Adventist University features international experiences and foreign language skills, ensuring preparedness for international work.
A degree in international business will prepare graduates with skills in:
- Cultural sensitivity
- Ethical awareness
- International finance, trade, strategy, and structure
- International management
- Cross-cultural communications

Because of this unique career field, international business is best paired as a second major with another business degree, which will help round out your business skillsets.
