International Strategy and Business Development

ISBD graduation minor.jpg

The International Strategy and Business Development minor sets students on the path of becoming successful young professionals within an international environment. The experience gained can be applied in SMEs and large multinational organisations or by self-employed entrepreneurs. The minor utilises important practical case studies, looking at business activities and developments within the EU economy and its interaction in the global economic arena.

This study was designed to meet the new demands of a dynamically changing workplace, as well as current environmental developments. It is based on the policies of the Dutch Ministry of Education, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the head of the employers association (VNO-NCW). It is also a proactive response to media reports on the opportunities presented by enhanced cross-border business communication and has been developed in collaboration with a diverse group of Dutch and German enterprises from the north of the Netherlands, northern Germany and Scandinavia.
