This key program satisfies the educational requirements for membership of the Australian Institute of Export. The global economy, which previously was for some an interesting, attractive, exciting but highly abstract concept, is today a reality. This program has been developed in response to the needs of the growing number of employers and the burgeoning student interest in global business opportunities. On a solid foundation in domestic business education, is built a detailed knowledge of the international dimension of business and the necessary understanding of the workings of that market system.
