EL 775 - International Field Study

(3.00 cr.)

Restricted to Emerging Leaders MBA students. Provides participants with an experientially-based international field study. By design, this course overlaps and extends the thinking and perspectives taken in previous courses in the program, while providing students with a conceptual framework that can be expanded and modified in future courses. Students learn to make better management decisions in a competitive global environment. Topics range from the application of the constraints and opportunities arising from diverse and changing international environmental factors (such as cultural distance, political risk, economic stability, legal complexities, and foreign exchange exposure) to managerial issues arising in conducting business overseas.
