Our BSc International Business with Languages programme combines comprehensive business education with the study of a language and culture – including a placement abroad. This exciting new four-year programme will provide you with key insights into international business management and contemporary issues in the global economy.
On this programme you will study at the Cork University Business School, one of Ireland’s leading business schools, alongside internationally recognised faculty from across the University. Combining business subjects with the study of your chosen language and culture, this new degree will equip you with the skills and knowledge to work in a fast-changing global business environment.
Our BComm (International) degrees are being phased out and, in 2022, students can apply for the BSc International Business with Languages degree through the Central Applications Office (CAO). If you need information for programme transfer please contact the CK215 programme director.
Programme Content
The business subjects on offer cover all the major areas of business including accounting, finance, food business, business economics, business information systems, business law, management and marketing. These subjects will equip you with the skills and knowledge to work in a fast-changing global environment. To succeed in international business, it is important to develop a global mindset, understanding different cultural approaches.
You will complement your international business knowledge with the study of your chosen language – French, German, Irish, Italian or Spanish. You will develop language proficiency and cultural understanding, enhanced by a year of studying abroad in one of our partner business schools.
We emphasis not only the acquisition of language skills but a profound understanding of the country itself – its markets, its social structures, and its place in this world – so ultimately you graduate from UCC as a true global citizen.
Why Choose This Course
This course is ideal if you want to combine your interest in international business and languages. It is the only course in the Cork University Business School that has a year of study abroad as an integral element of the programme. If you want to develop an international outlook, practical skills that are in demand from employers in global markets, and an appreciation of other languages, cultures, and literature then this course is ideal for you.
This is a generalist business programme which means we can facilitate your interests: so after Year 3 you might decide to specialise in business and go into industry; or study economics to become a business or financial consultant; or take the languages route and work in the European Commission or become a languages and business teacher – with your newfound global mindset the possibilities are vast.
Skills and Careers Information
Throughout this course you will learn how to work between and across languages and cultures, developing an enhanced set of communication and intercultural skills. You will emerge as a business-ready graduate, with the practical business and language skills that are in high demand from national and international employers. Ireland is part of the global economy and, because of your international outlook, a wide variety of careers will be available to you in Ireland and overseas, including finance, marketing, management, retail, accounting, advertising, tourism, teaching, human resources, project management, and consulting.
A variety of master’s programmes in related disciplines (Business and Language) are available to you as a graduate of this programme. Graduates have gone on to master’s degrees in International Management & Marketing, Business Economics, and Human Resource Management, for example.
