G.L.O.B.E.
Business school graduates emerge into an economy that is ever more global and interconnected. The G.L.O.B.E. program, Gabelli's international business second concentration, prepares students to succeed in that environment.
What defines a G.L.O.B.E. graduate? He or she can speak another language proficiently, has a deep understanding of other cultures, and has spent at least two weeks studying abroad. In short, he or she is the ideal job candidate for a multinational corporation.
G.L.O.B.E. puts an international spin on any business major a student has chosen. It taps into the vast resources of New York City as well as Fordham’s partnerships overseas, giving students firsthand experience in the global arena and opening new opportunities for their future careers.
G.L.O.B.E. highlights:
- Students apply for G.L.O.B.E. as juniors or seniors and choose a country of focus based on their personal and career interests.
- An experiential learning component requires studying abroad: either a full semester or two weeks' worth of study tours. The study-tour option can be completed through a single two-week tour or two one-week tours.
- Language proficiency at the intermediate level or better is achieved through Fordham coursework and study abroad.
- An experiential learning component requires either studying abroad or holding an approved globally focused internship in New York or in another country.
- Freshmen and sophomores interested in G.L.O.B.E. can lay the groundwork for their participation by joining the G.L.O.B.E. Club.
