That's why we've worked with your curriculum as an international business major to support up to a year of international study, while still allowing you to graduate in four years. You can combine an internship with a semester studying abroad at one of our international campuses in Montreal, Canada, or in Dublin, Ireland. You can also study virtually anywhere in the world through one of our third-party programs. I want to find another Bachelor Course
