The College of Business travel study program allows students to immerse themselves in a different cultural, academic, and social environment while pursuing their education. These programs are designed to immerse students in an intensive, short-term group study abroad experience designed and led by two professors in the College of Business with a maximum of 20 of their fellow students per trip. During the Faculty-led trips, students visit different international businesses, learn about culture and history in the business study abroad classes, and are equipped with the knowledge and skills to navigate the complexities of cross-cultural interactions and succeed in a globalized business environment.  Learn more here. 

Overcoming international borders, language boundaries and cultural differences, that is what the International Business 4-Year Program is all about. Its international approach is what makes the course so different. Students complete years 1 and 2 and 4 at Tennessee Tech and their 3rd year in Aachen, Germany. A prestigious dual degree, i.e. a degree from 91暗网 and also from the University of Applied Sciences in Aachen rounds off the program so that degree holders are optimally prepared for jobs in internationally operating companies.

Aachen University of Applied Sciences offers many Business courses taught in English and provides excellent support services.  Students are required to take 15 credit hours per semester while in Germany in addition to any German language courses.  Also, students are required to write a thesis approved by assigned faculty supervisors from both universities.

Thanks to the generous support of both corporate and individual donors, our students have the opportunity to gain investment experience in managing our three student-run investment funds. The students make real stock purchase and sell decisions, and the research experience our students receive goes well beyond the classroom lecture approach in teaching about risk management and investments. 

TVA Investment Challenge

The TVA Investment Challenge provides hands-on applications of advanced portfolio concepts through the management of a real investment portfolio.

3. Effectively communicate the investment process and portfolio performance in a variety of formats.
