Business Case Analyses
To foster students’ critical thinking and presentation skills, all business undergraduate students are required to take a first-year course in Business Case Analyses.

With the joint effort of the business faculty and the Language Center, the course integrates core business disciplines with communication skills. It is taught with a focus on both specific business content and interdisciplinary analysis along with effective presentation of cases analyses and recommendations.

Students can strengthen their language skills and learn about different cultures through a wide variety of academic and social activities, including getting to know local people and host families.
