Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Business Administration - International Business] From Old Dominion University

Students also select an appropriate region: Europe, Latin America or East Asia. Unless they are already fluent in both English and another language, students will study and obtain a high level of competency in a foreign language appropriate for the region of interest. Students can opt to study a language other than French, Spanish, German, Chinese or Japanese. If Old Dominion does not offer all the required courses for this language, the student must find equivalent courses at other universities. The student must obtain written permission from the International Business discipline coordinator to take these courses at a particular university. The required courses for Europe and Latin America concentration areas are intermediate 1 and 2 and the business language course. For East Asia concentration areas the equivalent courses are the first 12 credit hours of the language. Students fluent in English and another language may fulfill the language requirement with an approved business minor (see discipline coordinator for information). Students must also study the culture and history of the specific region.

All students majoring in international business are required to participate in an approved study abroad program. International students are exempt from the study abroad requirement. However, these students are required to take an approved business minor. Exemptions need written approval of the discipline coordinator. Students can choose from an extensive list of sites abroad. International business students have recently studied in Denmark, England, Mexico, the Philippines and Korea.
