The International Trade concentration prepares students to work directly in the field of importing and exporting, or in one of the many related fields that draw on this expertise. Students in the International Trade concentration develop the skills needed for careers that focus on trade-related issues in international banking, multinational corporations and international consulting firms.

Students in this concentration learn how to establish businesses that involve international trade, ranging from firms that advise clients on aspects of international trade to companies that directly import or export products.

Careers in government are also a possibility for International Trade concentration graduates, including jobs in domestic agencies that regulate trade (U.S. Customs, Food & Drug Administration, and the Federal Trade Administration) and jobs in multinational government agencies, such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization.

Students may complete the International Trade program in either a traditional or fast-track 12-month format. Admittance to the fast-track program is in the September term only with all foundation courses having been completed with a 3.00 GPA or better cumulative average, prior to entrance into core and concentration classes. The fast-track program format ensures graduation in one calendar year. The program is set up with selected concentration courses. Thus, all concentration courses may not be available in the fast-track delivery.
