Comments about International Business Program - Loyola University Maryland - At the institution - Spain - Study Abroad

  • Objectives
    The proposed course is an answer to the training needs of the US pre-degree certificate students that must experience a stay at universities away from their home country, and on the other hand, also to meet the needs of the pre-degree Spanish students that wish to carry out their business studies with the North American method of teaching. In this direction, the course has been outlined as a joint certificate of the Loyola College in Maryland and the University of Alcalá and is entirely taught in English following a North American university’s teaching methodology. To access the course the students must have a good enough command of English to understand the classes and work in teams together with the Loyola College students that attend the Programme. The international focus of the Programme is reflected in the humanistic and business contents of the course and the origin of the teaching staff and students. The Course includes five subjects: Business Ethics, International Finance, International Marketing, North American Literature and Theology. At the end of the course, the students should have the general knowledge to understand how the international finance markets work, get to known the most innovative marketing trends in the current globalized world and make use of the company’s .ethic behaviour codes. Likewise, the students will have a general knowledge of the North American literature in order to have available the interpretation keys of the North American Society. We are convinced this training offer we are presenting is an answer to the personal and professional needs and demands as well as of those derived from the market that encourages qualified incorporations to the participants’ companies.

    Methodology     

    It has an eminently practical focus, in which the students participate actively in solving cases and simulation exercises of real situations, carrying out individual and group works. The students must learn to solve problems, contribute to solutions and be flexible and innovative, learning to adapt to the real needs and using all the available information and knowledge acquired to work in a team within a professional environment.  

    Languages  

    The international nature of our environment is a reality that affects any activity, specially the financial environment in which a good command in English qualifies the professional and determines his/her orientation in the international and global environment. This is why the subjects are taught in English.
