International business involves the global exchange of goods, services, and capital across borders. For MBA students, venturing into international business is lucrative due to its vast opportunities for career growth. It offers exposure to diverse markets, cultures, and economies, honing skills in negotiation, strategy, and cross-cultural management. With the increasing globalisation of industries, an MBA in international business equips students to navigate the complexities and seize opportunities in the global marketplace.
