Master of Science - International Business (15-month) (January Entry)

International business is an exciting and rapidly evolving space as politics and economics shift, and societies and cultures evolve. In this course students will gain a comprehensive understanding of the processes of globalisation in the 21st century and the implications that these ongoing processes have for today’s business women and men – and indeed, for tomorrow’s leaders.

The International Business MSc is designed for those seeking to operate within an international business setting or within companies and jobs where an understanding of international business is an asset. The course will help students to develop a sound understanding of international business contexts and to make integrative links across various disciplines.

At Brunel they will explore the impact of internationalisation on factors such as the management of resources and operations, the financing of business enterprise, and the management and development of people. Aspects of the course will focus on emerging markets. It will also focus on the development of appropriate business policies and strategies to help put learning into practice.

Students will receive training in research methods with particular application to the empirical study of international management situations, issues and process.

What graduates learn on the International Business MSc will enable them to further develop transferable skills that can be used to address the challenges of working within an organisation or for themselves as part of the global economy.
