The Bachelor of Arts (Hons) International Business Management program in UOW Malaysia KDU Penang University College, Batu Kawan provides a broad-based business and management education, with an explicit international focus. This program is designed to produce business executives who are knowledgeable of responsible business and management within an international context.
The global focus in the program design is recognition that business is increasingly conducted in a dynamic, global environment and that graduates, from both within Malaysia and throughout the world, are required to work across traditional functional boundaries and national borders. Accordingly, this program offers students the opportunity to combine the study of key international business issues with the study of language and cultural issues. A further differentiating element of this proram 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.
