Students, professionals can learn international business at online universities

Individuals who wish to take advantage of the job opportunities available in the global business sector may consider enrolling in campus-based or online degree programs, such as those offered by Hult International Business School.

The college, which offers masters and undergraduate degrees, has announced that enrollment in its MBA program has increased by 115 percent over the past year.

School officials attribute this growth to increasing optimism concerning the global economy, which could improve the job market for professionals with MBA degrees.

Students who pursue this degree at Hult will be able to live in various cities while they complete the one-year program, including Boston, San Francisco, London and Dubai.

Program administrators allow students this flexibility because "in today's business world… [professionals] have to be open to foreign cultures and new experiences," said school president Stephen Hodges.

Individuals who wish to gain an international perspective while they pursue higher education may wish to examine the offerings of online colleges, which could allow them to earn a degree while they travel or work abroad.
