Students deepen the contents of international business as covered in the lecture "Foundations of International Business".

Students are provided an interactive format where they can discuss topics and contents in a small group setting, thus, can go into detail of core aspects and reflect upon related aspects.

Students' understanding of international business is aimed to be enhanced through a number of practical assignments, e.g. case studies, presentations, discussions, etc.

Students are supported in order to acquire hard and soft skills (group work, presentation skills, researching abilities, etc.) relevant for being successful in the complex environment of international business.

Students are trained to think holistically by applying all tools and skills acquired throughout the single sessions.

Your grade is composed of 50% individual assessment (i.e. 40% active class participation and 10% peer rating) and of 50% group grading (i.e. 3 group assignments: 10% assignment 1 (presentation), 15% assignment 2 (presentation), and 25% assignment 3 (presentation and written report). Grading is standardized throughout all applications courses. As this is a highly interactive class, it is important that you are well prepared and present for all sessions! Class participation makes up a considerable stake of your final grade and, therefore, absences will affect your grading.
