LC 284 - Integrative Seminar: BUS 320/COM 315 Business and Communication in China: Changes and ChallengesThree Credits
This is a travel LC designed to offer students not only a cross-disciplinary understanding of business and communication in modern China from a theoretical/conceptual perspective but also first-hand exposure to the changes and challenges China faces in business and communication. The LC will take students to China on a 10-day faculty-led trip in the spring semester of 2010. With its fast and vast changes and development, China has currently become a center of international business activities and is a driving force for global growth and integration. With its unprecedented social and economic transformation and its unique transition from a centrally-managed economy to a more market-based economy, China offers plenty of opportunities to see and learn about the social impact of its metamorphosis in terms of business and communication from domestic and global perspectives. This LC offers a cross-disciplinary approach, covering communications, business and finance, and exposes students to the larger Chinese historical, social and cultural environment. While in China, students will attend lectures or seminars offered by business scholars and practitioners on the campus of the University of International Business and Economics (UIBE) in Beijing, and they will also participate in field trips to business operations and cultural and historical sites in Beijing and its vicinity. Students will benefit greatly from this learning experience not only academically but also when they pursue internships and employment.
Prerequisite(s): BUS 320 requires a prerequisite of BUS 203 and COM 315 requires a prerequisite of COM 105 .
