ASSOCIATE PROGRAM

Program description

In the 2010-2020 period, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projected employment for logisticians would increase by 26%. Graduates pursuing logistics careers will analyze and present performance data, as well as track the performance of people, goods, and supplies along the international supply chain.

 The Associate of Science in International Business at MUST University familiarizes students with import and export laws, customs regulations, and ways to conduct international and domestic business legally. Students will get instruction in payment methods, freight operations, and the various types of documentation needed for international trade. Businesses that import and export must plan, finance, and arrange the transportation of goods while abiding by international regulations and fee structures. The import-export business is part of international trade.

Students who focus on this area of business study the global economy and cross-cultural communication. Those interested in the effect that imports and exports have on local and national economies can pursue an Associate of Science in International Business at MUST University.
