This key program satisfies the educational requirements for membership of the Australian Institute of Export. This key program examines the international business environment as firms are crossing boarders and identify opportunities in new markets. The international program has been developed in response to the needs of the growing number of employers, the industry sectors and the student demands and interests in understanding the international dimensions of our changing world on a a day to day, an example includes foreign exchanges impacting on businesses and consumers. Built upon domestic business education, a detailed knowledge is required from an international perspective when applying an understanding of the workings of that international business market to real life case studies and examples. An exciting aspect in this key program is that students engage in a project called International Business Project, and engage with a real business in international business.
