2 Credit(s)

Each year, the School of Business offers students the opportunity to participate in a short-term international travel experience to different countries through two sequential courses (UABUS 494A and UABUS 494B G). Through the courses, students gain critical insights and valuable real-world experience of global business processes and practices. In UABUS 494B G, students will participate in an approximately 10-day trip to the focus country as well as attend classes in the fall semester. During the trip, student tour locally- and foreign-owned companies, meet business executives to discuss business challenges and opportunities in the country, attend lectures about the country’s economy and culture, and participate in guided tours of historical and cultural sites. In the fall semester, students will meet 1 - 2 hours weekly to further explore business practices in the focus country within an historical, cultural and social context. In addition, students will analyze and compare the business practices in the US and focus country. Students must enroll in both UABUS 494A and UABUS 494B G in order to receive the G-tag.
