Description: The Global Business Semester explores the powerful forces of globalization and how they are impacting the business environment. The program examines the implications for the United States and the European Union, as well as the practical career impact on today's business graduates. Classroom study will be supplemented with site visits in the UK, France, India and China to see first hand how firms are coping with or taking advantage of these forces.

Highlights: In one intense and remarkable semester, you will see how globalization is changing the face of business, from outsourcing to global capital flows. Through a combination of on-ground academic work in Cyprus, positioned between Europe and Asia, and site visits to leading companies in London, Paris, New Delhi, Bangalore, Shanghai, Beijing and Hong Kong, this program will give an unprecendented first hand look at the forces shaping business today.
