Why study International Business?

Consider these numbers:

  • International trade has created more than 121,000 jobs in Colorado.
  • More than 83,000 Colorado jobs are at internationally owned companies.
  • 132 Colorado companies have overseas operations in 88 countries.

As a student in Metropolitan State University of Denver’s International Business program, you will acquire the knowledge, skills and experience to take your place in this dynamic sector — in Colorado and beyond.

At MSU Denver’s AACSB-accredited College of Business, you will study the functional areas of business such as accounting, finance, marketing and management, plus you will gain an appreciation for other cultures and acquire global experience through an international business internship, business-related study abroad or foreign language coursework.

Classes are small at MSU Denver, so you will have ample opportunity to get to know your professors, who have both real-world and academic experience. They will not only provide insight into the global marketplace but can also help guide you toward international experiences that will make your education come to life.
