As globalisation increases, more organisations have to work beyond their traditional regional boundaries, compete in diverse global environments and find that their traditional domestic markets are open to global challenges. These organisations need experts who can work across multicultural barriers, develop effective international strategies and source products internationally. This course will train you in these key business areas.
The 120 credit hours, 8-module course is designed to equip students with the technical knowledge of operating in an ever changing global economic and business landscape. Students will be exposed to fundamental business knowledge in the areas of marketing, business statistics, and communication.
The Diploma programme is conducted over 4 terms in 8 months. Upon successful completion of the 8 modules, students will be awarded the Diploma in International Business Management.
Each term consists of 6 study weeks, 1 exam week and 1 break week.
The programme is fully conducted on a face-to-face basis. Students will attend lectures and tutorial classes. Classes are conducted on Monday to Friday between 9a.m. to 6p.m. Class size is generally kept to a maximum of 66 students for lecture classes.
