Overview
Develop international management and policy solutions
Globalisation has changed the international business environment. This requires business executives and policy makers to manage and analyse a world where economic integration and national boundaries are increasingly significant.
In the new Management of International Business and Trade (Business Administration) programme of the University of Amsterdam you will learn to understand the complexity of today’s trade and business environment, from both a business and an economics approach. You investigate the challenges of international business and trade relations from a managerial and analytical perspective. Identifying global economic structures and analysing strategic issues that drive international trade and global business are part of the programme.
Experienced team of lecturers
The programme draws on lecturers and researchers from both the Amsterdam Business School and the Amsterdam School of Economics. Many of the instructors have practitioner experience in their fields. Consequently, in this academic programme we will discuss theories from both the management and policy perspectives. You will be challenged to apply the material of this track through links to contemporary cases and developments.
