Internationalizing the Business Program—A Perspective of a Small School

Abstract The internationalization of the business curriculum is a strategic change that business schools must embrace if they are to prepare students for careers in a global business environment. Various approaches to internationalization exist, but they depend on the availability of resources, administrative commitment, and the level of internationalization that the school wants to achieve. In this article, the authors review various aspects of internationalizing a business program and describe the experience of a small private college.
