MAJOR IN INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS:
The International Business Major is designed to provide students with a particularly wide variety of experiences to prepare them to participate successfully in global business. International business students need to be educated in the history, language, and practices of other cultures. Along with a strong foundation of business courses, this major draws upon the strengths of related disciplines such as foreign language, literature, history, geography, philosophy, political science, and theology. Upon graduation, students are fully prepared to enter a global organization in any one of several functional areas (marketing, management, and manufacturing) or proceed to graduate studies.
Requirements:
The courses in the International Business Major are divided into three areas:
Area I:
Business Knowledge Core (nine courses)
ACC 125 Principles of Accounting I
ACC 126 Principles of Accounting II
ECO 110 Principles of Microeconomics
ECO 111 Principles of Macroeconomics
ECO 115 Statistics
ECO 325 Corporate Finance
MGT 100 Management and Organizational Behavior
MGT 101 Principles of Marketing
MGT 210 Quantitative Methods
Area II:
International Business Core (six courses) MGT 306 International Marketing MGT 307 International Management MGT 400 Business Strategy Foreign Language at level 3. International business majors are encouraged to satisfy their General Education requirement by selecting the language option. Language competency may also be satisfied through AP level 4. One additional foreign language or linguistics course at any level. This foreign language will be other than that used to satisfy the level 3 requirement. One from among the following courses, or two if foreign language competency is satisfied by AP credits:
MGT 318 Asian Business Practices
MGT 320 European Business Practices

MGT 399 Internship in Business: This is a supervised internship sponsored by the Business Studies Department.
The two types of internships which may qualify are (1) internships through an approved overseas study program, or (2) internships with a U.S.-based, multinational corporation in an international, functional area. These internships should be planned with the internship coordinator at least one semester in advance. The sequencing of International Business Core and Depth courses should follow that already suggested for the management or marketing major. The sequencing of the other requirements of this major remains at the discretion of the student and his/her advisor. Note: Students are not officially enrolled until the internship coordinator has approved the application and notified the Registrar that the student may register for the internship course. Area III: International Business Cultural Literacy Depth (3 courses, one in each of 3 areas) The focus of this area is to build student knowledge of cultural literacy. Additional courses which clearly support this learning goal will be approved by the Chair, Department of Business Studies. A literature or film course in a foreign language or ENG 378 Post-Colonial Literature, and other literature courses whose focus is non-American.

ART 231 Islamic Art And Architecture
This course is an examination of Islamic art and architecture that introduces the student to a non-Western tradition, encouraging the student to study art forms within cultural and societal contexts that greatly differ from those of the West. This course examines four areas of artistic achievement within the Islamic world: ceramics, architecture, textiles, and arts of the book. An overarching theme of the course is the role that representations of the Koranic verse played in the formation of all four art forms, thereby underscoring the fusion of faith and art within the Islamic world. Although the course is designed as a geographic and chronologic overview, certain art forms will be focused on in greater depth, such as Turkish ceramics ad Iranian manuscripts. The closing segment of the course examines 20th century Islamic architecture, that of mosques as well as secular buildings. Staff/Three credits
