Exposure to diverse, multicultural perspectives in a global business environment can enhance the education of students at the Cameron School of Business. Varied opportunities are available to students who wish to enrich their education with international experiences.
One possibility for global engagement is the International Business (IB) option. This program allows a student to focus on the international aspects of management, marketing, finance and so on, as well as to gain an understanding of the forces that influence the conduct of businesses around the world.
Travel or Study Abroad Options
Every student in the Cameron School of Business has the option to internationalize his or her education by spending a semester or summer abroad. Possibilities include attending classes at a school in another country or participating in a group trip to visit businesses in several countries. Of course, students may pursue the study of another language (or two!) at UNCW.

TransAtlantic Business School Alliance (TABSA)
Cameron's longer-term study abroad program is called TABSA, which is an alliance of U.S. and European Schools offering dual-degree programs for undergraduate business students. After completing two intensive years at UNCW and the Cameron School of Business, students study at one of the partner institutions in Europe for two years. Each student completes an internship in the United States and Europe and works toward foreign language fluency while living in a different culture.
The European TABSA partners are Euromed Management, in Marseille, France; Hochschule Bremen, University of Applied Sciences, in Bremen, Germany; the Universitat de Valencia, in Valencia, Spain; and the University of Hertfordshire, in Hatfield, UK. In addition to UNCW’s Cameron School of Business, the U.S. members are East Tennessee State University and the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
Feel free to stop by the International Business Programs Office in Cameron Hall, Room 124, to discuss any of these opportunities for global business study.
