Area Study
Area study requirements consist of 24 credits of non-business coursework that
relate to an international theme. Usually this theme will be geographically-based,
such as Southeast Asia, Latin America, or European region (North America does
not count, nor does your native region if you are an international student.)
Other common themes that are not geographic may submitted for approval as
long as they are consistent with the purpose of area study, which is to introduce
you to another culture from a non-business perspective. Foreign language
courses cannot be used toward area study requirements.Coursework in
this area must include at least two department prefixes.
Foreign Language
Foreign language requirements are two years of university-level foreign language study that compliments your area study theme. University equivalency rules apply in this situation.
Study Abroad
We encourage you to study abroad as part of your education, but it is not required for this certificate.
