The study of international business and management is a broad subject, which involves many topics such as: the evaluation of an international company performance in coordinating and managing business activities in a cross-cultural context; the analysis of the international business environment utilising a range of models and concepts drawn from relevant international business theories; the analysis of the relationship between national culture, organisational behaviour and management practice; and the investigation of contemporary issues in the management of international business.
A research degree at Abertay is excellent preparation for a career as a researcher and an academic, as well as a diverse range of professions outside of academia, for example, in consultancy work.
