The Major in International Business

Baruch College has recognized international business as an important area of study for over 60 years. The International Business major builds on that history and provide students with a comprehensive understanding of international business principles as they apply in a business setting, expertise in a functional area (initially marketing or finance) within traditional business disciplines, appreciation and awareness of foreign cultures and practices in both business and social environments, knowledge of a second language to conduct business in a foreign country, and practical business experience in an international environment, i.e., the practicum project in the capstone course and possibly an international internship.

Students who graduate from this program will be some of the most well-rounded graduates because they have likely lived in a foreign country, learned a foreign language, worked on international projects, become an expert in a functional business area, and met the requirements of a Baruch BBA degree.

For a major in international business, students are required to take: (1) 21 credits of international-related courses (four core courses and three electives); (2) a three-course minor in either finance or marketing; and (3) a liberal arts minor in a foreign language.

Information on the major, the internship, and language courses can also be obtained from the Weissman Center for International Business, located in Room 810, 137 East 25th Street, telephone: 646-312-2070, and from Sarah Demetz ( telephone: 646-312-2073; sarah.demetz@baruch.cuny.edu).

Language Requirement

The International Business major requires students to study a foreign language. Students will take 2 courses at the 3000 level and 1 course at the 4000 level (i.e., capstone class) in a foreign language. However, students who demonstrate proficiency in a second language via a test would not be required to study a second language.

Students who entered Baruch prior to Fall 2013 have the choice to opt-in to Pathways or to complete the set of general education requirements that is currently in place at the college (the Baruch Common Core). Under this latter set of requirements, students would pursue three foreign language courses (i.e., 2 at the 3000 level and 1 4000 level course) as a Tier III minor, unless they successfully complete a language proficiency test.

Marketing
Choose any three courses (9 credits) from those offered by the Department of Marketing and International Business, except MKT 3000.
