International Business Emphasis
When completing an International Business Emphasis, in addition to the basic requirements (Int.

Please consult your International Studies adviser, who will help you to maximize the many potential inter-locking related majors and minors, and ensure that these are completed in time. The earlier you consult with your advisor, the more options you will be able to pursue.
