This subject introduces students to the multidimensional nature of international business
and discusses the importance of globalisation and how it has changed the competitive
environment of business. It introduces the role of multinational corporations and
the complexity of international operations and management, and discusses current debates
surrounding multilateral bodies. Reasons for the emergence of globalisation and the
internationalisation of business are considered along with emergent business strategies
and organisational forms appropriate to international business. Trade policies of
a number of important trading partners are examined through the application of a trade
poster. International business entry modes and the impact of cultural differences
on doing business overseas are analysed. Students will need to demonstrate skills
in gathering and evaluating data, from both printed and internet sources, and developing
a strategic business approach in analysing international business case studies. Students
will gain from this subject an appreciation of the multifaceted nature of trade in
a globalised trading system.
