Bachelor of Arts in Area of Specialization: International Studies (IS)

Description The International Studies area of specialization encourages students to investigate the global nature of business, culture and politics. The program and curriculum is tailored to prepare individuals interested in a position in the global job market. Classes selected to complete the area of specialization requirements feature an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the functional areas of business and should increase awareness of cross-cultural, societal, and business differences. For career information view: https://career.ufl.edu/

Requirements Students who choose the International Studies area of specialization must have a 3.0 UF GPA and are required to study abroad for at least one semester in a program of a minimum of six weeks in length. The area requires that students complete a maximum of four classes totaling 12 hours from any of the 3000-4000 level pre- approved courses in this document and complete a minimum of 12 hours of business or international business courses, preferably during study abroad. If students are interested in taking UF courses currently not approved to count toward this area of specialization, they can submit a course description along with a College Petition to a Heavener School of Business advisor to have the course added to the present roster. Check UF course prerequisite requirements carefully, as many of the courses listed below require students to take either INR 2001 Introduction to or CPO 2001 , which cannot be used to satisfy the area of specialization.

Study Abroad Requirement Students are required to study abroad for this area of specialization and are encouraged to participate in a Heavener sponsored or Warrington exchange program. While studying abroad, students should complete at least 12 hours of courses in business or international business. Advisors in the Heavener International Programs office will assist students in selecting universities and courses suitable to their field of study and interests.
