    About St. George’s University:
    In 1977, St. George’s University (www.sgu.edu) opened its doors on the
    lovely island nation of Grenada (http://www.grenadagrenadines.com) in the
    West Indies with a medical program that was the first of its kind in the
    world. Beyond our innovative curricular offerings, St. George’s University
    is noted for the internationalism of its community, the faculty and
    students who are from 90 countries. Within the School of Arts & Sciences,
    the Department of Business offers six business degrees:
    BS/ International Business
    BS/ Accounting
    BS/ Economics/Finance
    BS/ Management
    BS/ Hospitality Management
    BS/ Marketing

    The Department of Business mission is to deliver first-class education that
    will enable our students to become successful business practitioners. We
    aim to develop a reputation for offering a contemporary education in
    business which caters to the diverse needs of a growing student population.
    We strive to develop in our students a global orientation, an
    entrepreneurial attitude, and a sense of responsibility and service to the
    community. We offer a student-friendly internationally diverse environment
    that allows our students the chance to experience many cultures within the
    campus environs. We are positioned as the only institution in the Caribbean
    that strives to meet the most rigorous international standards while still
    offering small class sizes and accessible faculty.

    Key features of the business degree programs include the mandatory foreign
    languages component, the business internships and the core curriculum which
    is geared to develop proficiency in all aspects of business. In the era of
    globalization, foreign language proficiency is a critical tool for business
    success. The business internship, which can be done domestically,
    regionally or internationally allows the student to gain practical
    experience in his/her chosen career. It also enables the student to gain
    confidence in his/her skills, while establishing valuable contacts and
    acquiring work experience for future endeavors. The core curriculum
    features accounting, finance, ethics, quantitative skills, international
    business, economics, business communications, business law, marketing,
    organizational behavior, strategic management and operations management.

    Regards,
    Dr. Reccia Charles
    Program Coordinator
