The Bachelor of Commerce in International Business (B.Com IB) is an undergraduate program that takes 3 years to complete and is structured into 6 semesters. In the United States and Canada, some colleges extend the program to 4 years by adding more courses or internship placements for work experience. The program is designed to provide students with skills needed in international business such as global trade, finance, marketing, and supply chain management.
Students learn international business and strategy, trade relations, the global economy, and intercultural business management. The program is expected to provide students with knowledge of international business through case studies, projects, and internships in international commerce. Some offer the possibility of a dual degree, studying abroad, and taking courses of a foreign language which increases international career opportunities. Graduates can take up careers in export-import management, international marketing, global finance, or even with multinational corporations. Some may also further their education with MBA in International Business or professional qualification in global trade and finance.
