Global Organization

Courses in the Global Organization studies concentration (labeled "GL") focus on organizational relationships within and between local companies and the broader international community. These courses include the International Course Abroad (ICA) seminars in which students study for one to two weeks in cities abroad including China, Sweden, the UK, Czech Republic, and the countries of the Eastern Baltic region. The Global Organization track may be appropriate for those who work in or are affiliated with a global organization, are planning to establish business relationships outside north America (including for outsourcing), or who are interested in the effects of global culture, economics, politics, and communication on organizational enterprises. Global Organization courses also describe how global interests are influenced by local cultural framing. Participation in the GL concentration leads to a certificate in Global Organizational Studies.
