1 Students who opt for the trip must enroll in this study during their last summer before completing their degree. Demand for the program and other factors that affect the scheduling of the study tour may require adjustments to this requirement. In planning the study tour was considered the regions under study of the concentration of students in international trade have opted for a sub in a particular region of the world.
Students who opt for the exchange program must participate in it in its fourth year, this time because they have completed all course requirements and electives will only detract from the concentration and free. As far as possible the student will be required in the concentration of international trade that has opted for a sub in the study of a region of the world to study at any university in this region.
The student can do his internship at a local company if working in an area related to international trade. (The DAE has experience coordinating internal accounting, management and human resources in enterprises.) However, encourage participation in internships abroad especially those who subespecialicen in the study of a region. The program may be channeled HACU applications for internships in the United States.
The prerequisite of the research project will be the course of Research Methods and Techniques in Business Administration, which, in turn, has the prerequisite courses of Statistics I and II. For students wishing to create new businesses and ideas with the potential for the market in its global research project, they also require the course of Business Development. Depending on the magnitude and depth of the research project will allow work in groups. (Departmental Research Committee will coordinate and evaluate research projects.) It will encourage interdisciplinary work.
