International Business — Herzing University Online Programs

When it comes to business, our world is shrinking. With the world-wide adoption of the Internet, boundaries that used to contain business growth have been shattered, and opportunities now seem endless. The demand for professionals specializing in international business is higher than ever, and as more companies adopt the mantra of 'go global,' demand will continue to grow.

International Business combines two equally important aspects: the understanding of people, cultures, and how those cultures interact with others; and the principles, components and motivations of a business. To be properly prepared for a career of this specialization, professionals must have instruction in:

• Marketing and advertising principles, and how to apply them to different cultures
• Interpersonal communications, both direct (spoken and written) and indirect (subconscious)
• Recognizing potential barriers to operating within a foreign market and methods to overcome them
• International finance and banking
• Identifying different business models around the globe
• International business laws
• Core components of a business
• Importing and exporting goods

Herzing University Online offers several different options for those looking to further their education in the field of international business and business administration. Each program incorporates the core courses required for successful entry into this field and adds additional courses as required by the level of education or specialty area the student pursues.
