Bachelor of Arts (Hons) International Business Management (Penang Campus)
This program offers students the opportunity to combine the study of key international business issues with the study of language and culture. A further differentiating element of this program is the provision of business consultancy modules which provide students an understanding, and hands-on experience, of consultancy from the perspective of both the client and the consultant. Students work closely with an external organisation on a “real-life” project in order to develop the skills needed to perform the assigned consultancy task. Besides, the student will be encouraged and supported in their third year spent outside of the Malaysia, which can be in a work placement, study abroad or a combination of both these activities.
