“The undergraduate international business program offers faculty-led programs in 12 countries, international business internships in five countries and exchange programs in six countries,” said Chip Hunter, college dean. “Great public land-grant universities like WSU emphasize transformational student experiences and push the frontiers of knowledge. Our U.S. News & World Report ranking confirms we represent the best of higher education in America.”

The college is home to WSU’s strongest study abroad program. Its global learning requirement, developed eight years ago, established the college as a leader in educating global business leaders.

“International learning is available in every business major,” Hunter said. “Our graduates are well prepared to enter a world of business that requires global understanding and to draw on that understanding for their own career success. Carson College graduates make a difference to the economies of our state, our country and the world.”
