In order to
compete in an international marketplace, North
Americans must study harder than their counterparts
around the world — and on an ongoing basis.
Whereas members of the EU (European Union) are
accustomed to working within different languages
and across borders, American business tends to
be insular — without having to account
for the broader perspective of trade regulations
of different governing bodies. In addition to
language difficulties, cultural differences make
international business more challenging, but
with the globalization of the world markets,
it's well worth your time and effort to learn
multi-cultural business etiquette.
A formal, accredited international
business degree from Duquesne University prepares
you to compete in the ever important global market.
Survival of North American companies is dependent
on the ability to expand into new markets — to
do this they must be open to change and learning
the needs and wants of their international customers.

This is one business area where
a comprehensive, high level of education is crucial — even
for entry level positions. Advanced education
is highly valued by other countries around the
world, so it's important to have universally
recognized credentials, cultural sensitivity,
and an ongoing knowledge of world affairs if
you want trade doors open for you. |
