Abstract:
|
Business is global and it is becoming more important for graduating seniors to understand the global business environment. Faculty-led short-term embedded courses provide a diverse range of students with the opportunity to be exposed to a foreign culture in a shortened period of time, allowing students to enhance their academic study in a global context. Through the collaboration between business academic advisers, college faculty, and international programs, colleges and universities have the potential to develop embedded courses that are mapped back to the university strategic plan. This session is dedicated to advisers, faculty, and international programs staff to discuss strategies for elevating the international profile in higher education by strengthening students' understanding of international business and culture through embedded programs. |
