International Practicum

Building on your foundation courses in your first term at Ivey, you will be taken through a 10 week Social Enterprise and Micro-Finance Program. In partnership with Global Business Brigades, you engage in a 3 stage learning process from training and learning about the local culture and business environment; to field work interfacing with borrowers and clients in business consulting, technical support and capacity building roles; followed by leading workshops and mentoring other volunteers. Your practicum experience equips you with strong project management skills, strategy consulting skills, client-facing interaction and an understanding of business in a greater international context; preparing you to launch your international business career.

 

Research Project

Take advantage of the exceptional faculty coaching available to you
when you complete the Research Project. Select current research
theory and best practices observed in a business environment
and apply and evaluate the results when they are applied in a
new environment. You have the opportunity to put theory and
observations to the test and to examine how and why the results
may differ. As an alternative to the Research Project, you will delve
deeper into subject matter of your choice with additional electives
in term three.

 

International Business Project

Challenge yourself and apply your skills and knowledge by tackling a real case for a real international company. Student teams work on the business project during term four. The project is supervised and evaluated by both the company and a faculty advisor.
