Thrive in the Global Marketplace 

Professionals with international business knowledge and experience are in demand in the workplace now more than ever.

Students in our MBA program's international business concentration gain a deep understanding of international economics, business, education, finance and cultures as well in-depth knowledge about current realities and demands unfolding in the global marketplace. 

Through individual assignments and team projects, students also have the opportunity to engage in real-world, international business practices and network with global company leaders in Downtown Pittsburgh.

The student population in the program is composed of both national and international students, creating a synergy that contributes to a deeper understanding of international business and cross-cultural awareness. This awareness is enhanced further by international student presentations on business and economic issues relating to their home countries.
