Course summary
Crafting connections across cultures Being able to communicate effectively and appropriately with people from diverse cultural backgrounds is a vital skill in an increasingly interconnected world, particularly in the area of Marketing. Our innovative Intercultural Business Communication and Marketing Management degree is unique in the country and offers you the opportunity to develop a desirable skillset applied to a specific sector.
