BA/BS in International Business

Students who want a business career that crosses national borders can pursue this undergraduate degree through the D'Amore-McKim School of Business at Northeastern. It trains graduates to handle management problems in a changing world economy, with attention to how working across cultures and varied commercial customs affects each student's chosen area of concentration. Time overseas forms a central part of the curriculum. Each student must spend at least a semester studying or on a co-op job in a country different from their home country, and some can earn a second degree through a partner institution abroad. Picking up another language is encouraged, though not mandatory. The full-time course takes four years and is run from Boston, with global placements available. Enrollment starts in the fall term. Applicants may apply through Early Decision, Early Action, Regular Decision or as transfers, and each route carries its own deadline. Concentrations, minors and combined majors let students shape the degree around their interests.
