Overview
As global economic integration expands, sound financial decisions in the public and private sectors cannot be based solely on domestic considerations. The Global Commerce and Finance program from Claremont Graduate University (CGU) augments rigorous study in economic theory and analysis with deep examination of the cross-cutting global, regional, and local issues affecting business. Curriculum draws on economic theories, applied econometrics, quantitative economics, predictive modeling, and political economy to understand global economic and financial interactions.
Hands-on training in quantitative research gives our students a competitive edge, allowing them unique insight into international finance and business that takes into account the evolving relationship between commerce and international politics and policy. Our transdisciplinary approach creates thoughtful problem solvers who know when to reach across academic boundaries.
Program Highlights
- Ideal for professionals seeking positions with a focus in international economics, trade, and finance in the commercial sector, or in government, international, and nonprofit organizations.
