Hello,

* BCom (International Business) :

• This four-year programme is a pioneer in undergraduate business education. Our students will profit from an enriched experience through interaction with international students and the global marketplace, equipping them to be role players in the international knowledge economy.

* Why study this programme ?

• The BCom (International Business), a unique programme in South Africa, has been carefully crafted to develop role players in the international knowledge economy with a global mind-set.
• The curriculum covers management and social sciences, including a foreign language, to develop your intercultural competence.
• You acquire a thorough grounding in the South African realities while developing the critical skills and knowledge to work in an international environment.
• To top it all, in your third year of study you will take part in six months international exchange with one of the Faculty's international partner institutions. In this international setting you can start honing your new skills even before you graduate.
• Through the integration of national and international students the programme creates a platform for an international classroom that directly supports international business as a field of study.

* Career opportunities :

* More information :

• This programme creates opportunities for employment within firms with an international footprint. It caters for a diverse group of students as it has an interdisciplinary approach and will thus draw students with an interest in both Management Sciences and Social Sciences. Traditional programme development usually does not allow for students to combine modules from both these study fields to the level that is allowed for in this programme.
• This programme widens the access to international experience through the international exchange semester, and opens opportunities for students to study abroad.
• The programme will be attractive for full degree international students as it offers a combination of Business and Social Sciences that resonates with programmes abroad.
• The programme will also actively engage short-term (non-degree-seeking) international students as the module profile of the programme is aligned with the requirements of the programmes of the exchange partners.

1. The BCom (International Business) programme is a strict selection programme with set criteria that have to be met in order to proceed from one academic year to the next.
