This course examines world trade and the processes that business managers go through in order to establish or expand operations into international markets. Students explore various levels of business involvement in foreign markets, combining historical, theoretical, and current perspectives on international business and world trade. They learn the terminology of international business, and examine the influence of forces such as culture, economics, politics, and geography on business and markets. Students are also introduced to international organizations including the World Bank, the International Development Association, the World Trade Organization, and the International Monetary Fund. Each module also introduces Canadian issues and perspectives on international business and trade, and lists websites and other resources that offer a wealth of information for Canadians doing business globally. This course was previously known as ADMN 380.
