Global Business Perspectives (BUS 401) Prepares Gies seniors to become globally literate, ready to lead life on purpose. Through consistent reading and critical analysis of credible, reliable sources, this course will help students gain a deeper understanding of countries (geography, history, culture), of international business, and of the complex global forces -- economic, geopolitical, legal, socio-cultural -- that interconnect and influence individuals, organizations, and societies. Students will further be challenged not only to reflect on their own values and worldview in their final year at Gies but also to explore how an appreciation of the diverse, human experience of other communities around the world can lead to a more informed, empathic global business perspective.
