The increasing amounts of trade among nations and international strategic alliances between businesses created the need for managers trained specifically in the facets of international business. Even the smallest business cannot escape the reality of the world as its market. Students who major in international business acquire the basic knowledge to operate successfully in an international business environment. The multi-disciplinary curriculum emphasizes foreign language and culture to give a broad understanding of the international business environment. Graduates will have a firm understanding of the international economy and the global marketplace.

Center of Excellence in International Business

In 1997, the South Dakota Board of Regents designated Northern State University’s School of Business as a Center of Excellence in International Business, with the goal of creating a nationally recognized program in International Business. The Center has created an International Business major focusing not only on international business courses, but also on language and cultural training. The Center also provides both students and faculty the opportunity to have an international experience through exchange programs, conferences, and other international experiences. Northern’s Center of Excellence in International Business also sponsors an annual international business conference that is attended by faculty, students and business people from around the world. The Center provides today’s students with the scholarly and theoretical foundations to become tomorrow’s international business leaders.
