What are some of the best colleges for this degree? What companies recruit these graduates?
Guess there are not many options for this degree~
I am an attorney who represents a number of fruit, nut and vegetable processors in the Central Valley of California. Most of my clients have management personnel who have degrees in international business (UCLA is one particularly good school), which enables them to efficiently interact with distributors and marketers in Europe, Asia, China and other developing economies. These days, almost anything that is manufactured or grown on a large scale will interact with a global economic system. Managers, marketers, distributors, advertisers all need international business knowledge to function in those markets. Also, lobbyists for industries that buy and sell anything between the U.S. and other countries have need for such degrees. Beyond manufacturing, international business knowledge is crucial these days in investment banking, corporate transactions (buying and selling corporations or subsidiaries), insurance, journalism, and many other careers. Any company with international business or aspirations for such business (any corporation of any size these days) would recruit these graduates, although if a grad can combine specific knowledge of a particular company, trade or industry (toy-making, food processing, etc.) together with a degree in international business, that would maximize his or her opportunities at the outset.
Good luck!
