Faculty-led programs allow students to learn from WSU professors while attending WSU courses taught abroad. More than 75 percent of WSU faculty in the International Business program have international experience working, traveling, and teaching in their field.
“International Business is a major focus of our college in order to prepare students to work and research in a new global economy. We’re very proud of the programs and opportunities we offer in the classroom and around the world,” said Dr. David Sprott, associate dean for Graduate, International and Professional Programs in Business.
The WSU College of Business opened its China Center last year at the Southwestern University of Finance and Economics (SWUFE) in Chengdu, China, giving students and professors opportunities for exchange and research in a variety of fields. Beginning spring 2010, a semester-long faculty-led program will be offered at the center.
