This course introduces students to the various international business environments. It further develops skills in formulating strategies that correspond to the current business context. It provides opportunities for students to apply these skills within existing organisations. This course uses an inquiry-based approach to engage students in the process of formulating questions and investigating issues that are relevant to the international business. The course also has a strong skills-based focus, aimed at enhancing the research and communications skills students need in their future careers as researchers and professionals.
