Also, all International Business majors are expected to participate in a Study Abroad experience. Study Abroad choices are available for a summer, a semester or a year from a wide range of different countries and universities within those countries. Through the University's Career Advantage Program, a student can gain practical experience while completing the degree program. Students work for business firms and governmental organizations performing the types of tasks that are typically associated with information systems. In addition to the experience gained, they receive one to three academic credits.
Students alternate semesters of academic course work with semesters of full-time employment.
Under this option, in addition to the academic credit granted, they are also paid a competitive wage by the employer. It differs from the two previous opportunities in that the work is typically on campus.
