International Business and Emerging Markets MSc

The programme aims to help you understand how to do international business, especially from developmental states.

It will help you understand the particular challenges faced in:

  • developing corporate strategy
  • attracting foreign direct investment
  • working in countries with very different cultures, institutions, laws and business practices

If emerging markets are, by their very nature, in a state of flux, then already successful economies are characterised by a different kind of dynamic.
