- Academic Program
Students will enroll in two courses at the EM Strasbourg – European Integration and Business in Europe. These courses will be taught in English by faculty at the Ecole de Management (EM) Strasbourg – University of Strasbourg.
Additionally, students are required to take a non-credit course in basic French language and culture (no previous study of French required).
European Integration
The primary goal of this course is to provide students with a strong foundation of the European idea and the history of the European movement leading to the European Union of today. We will examine the different treaties shaping the Union and the underlying ideologies and political goals of the member states, and eventually discuss the draft constitution and the Lisbon Treaty. The second goal of this course is to enable the student to understand the institutional set up of the European Union and its decision-making procedures and dynamics. In the second part we will analyze the different policies,
especially the Single Market, the Common Agricultural Policy and examples of policies which are in the second and third pillar of the Maastricht Treaty. This course will transfer to IU as BUS-D 355 (3 cr.) - Special Topics in International Business.
Business in Europe - This course will be taught by an instructional team from EM Strasbourg, covering managing arts organizations, competing in the global marketplace, marketing in Europe, and managing the cultural differences in the European context. This course will transfer to IUPUI as BUS D301 (3 cr.) – International Business Environment.This program will satisfy the Kelley School of Business international dimension requirement. Students may also be interested in continuing their international studies through the Kelley International Studies co-major.
