Bachelor [International Business] From Bowling Green State University

Only a small percentage of international business graduates are initially employed in an international organization. Most graduates accept positions within the domestic division of an international company and perform a basic business function such as marketing, accounting, public or labor relations, law, personnel, finance or production.

Within three to five years, opportunities to work directly with international business operations may occur at three levels: work with an international division on activities in the United States, work with an international activity that requires occasional or frequent trips to different countries, or work on an assignment in a foreign country for a period of time.

Opportunities also exist in foreign companies which have subsidiaries in the U.S. A student who selects elective courses carefully may qualify for a career in an international organization such as the World Bank, United Nations or the International Monetary Fund. International opportunities also exist with federal and state governments.
