Description | In recent years the importance of an international perspective for students of business has increased as a result of the increasing globalization of the economy. The International Business major exposes students to the impact of the international environment on the functional areas of business management. In conjunction with courses in the International Studies program, the major in International Business allows students to focus on a country or region of the world, providing education in language, culture and business practice. Graduates are suited to work in firms or government agencies involved in international operations.
Students in the BComm Honours Program must complete all requirements for the BComm in their major(s) of choice. In addition, the students must successfully complete 6 credit hours of COMM 497-(3-6) Honours Thesis. The Honours Thesis must be conducted under the supervision of a faculty member with PhD qualifications. Entry to the Honours Program takes place after the end of the second year of BComm studies (I.e., upon completion of at least 60 credit hours) and requires a minimum GPA of 3.33 calculated on the last 60 credit hours completed at the time of declaration to the Honours Program. | | |
