The MSc International Business is designed to develop a deep knowledge and understanding of the operation of business and organisations in an international context, in addition to developing the personal and employability skills required for employment in international business or management.
The globalisation of trade and international communications technology have been the driving forces of growth for business and economies over the past 20 years, and despite the global downturn, they will continue to drive future business development. A thorough knowledge of the economic, political, technological and cultural factors facing international business is crucial for any manager in the modern trade environment. You will combine analysis from various disciplines including economics, politics, international business, marketing, management and finance throughout the course.
In addition you will also develop your ability to use relevant analytical methods for evaluating business operations, trade and strategy, in an international context. You will become strategically aware of the factors affecting businesses operating in international markets, and will develop the skills to apply different theoretical perspectives to the critical appraisal of business operations and strategy.
Using relevant models and drawing on appropriate sources of research, you will be able to draw relevant conclusions and develop recommendations for international business strategy changes.
