IBAOUR MISSION:
“... to foster the study of international business, encourage scholarship, advocate cultural diversity, and provide members with useful tools and information about the international business environment.”
What is International Business?
The continued growth of world trade has resulted in increasingly intertwined and interdependent national economies, creating exciting career opportunities for the international business major.
IBA at BGSU introduces its members to the evolving world of global business through networking among professional platforms. We also strive to increase member awareness and knowledge of global trends. Furthermore, we endeavor to establish a solid professional and cultural foundation through fellowship among globally experienced professionals and peers, thus enabling individuals to develop professional ties for future domestic and international endeavors.

"Today's successful business executives think globally. Marketing, manufacturing and finance managers must be well educated in international business, bolstered by a fluency in a second language, to compete in both domestic and international environments."
