International Business

International business is a study that has significant impact on individual who seek to ensure that their careers go beyond the national levels into the international level. Specifically, individual who wish to operate or manage international businesses may require specific information and understanding of markets and business operations. Through taking international business as a course, such an individual may be able to acquire the skills that they require in order to remain effective and successful in their career. International business as a course provides the learner with sufficient information and mindset to successful remain effective both locally and internationally.

My major is International Business. There are different reasons why I chose this as my major. One of the major reason for choosing International Business as my major is my need to take my career internationally. I seek to be employed for a maximum of five years. After the five years, I hope to run my personal business. In the five working years, I hope to gain the experience of working within both the national and international markets. This will help me in ensuring that I am able to operate my business successfully at these levels. Further, my major shall be effective in providing the best information and skills that shall help in improving my effectiveness while operating within international markets. In addition, I chose my major in order to get the specific requirements that I require in order to work in a business related career, which shall help in improving my abilities to remain effective and operate my business in international levels.

Despite choosing International Business as my major, I have at times had the thought of changing my major into another professional course. The reason I had these though was based on the idea that there are some units that are business related that I may still take while taking another professional course, such as law. I have always been interested in law. I have always had the thoughts of studying law then operate a law firm. However, my need to venture into different businesses, not just one specific business, encouraged me to take International Business as my major. I believe that through following my interests I shall remain successful.

As I have been taking the course, I have had both interesting and challenging assignments. There is one assignment that I felt was quite challenging. The assignment was to research an international organization that has been traded recently and define the terms of the trade. This assignment was quite challenging to me. The information provided by articles and books were not effective to answer the questions. I was forced to read too much about the company and interpret their performance in order to come up with the information that was required by the assignment. Despite the challenging nature of the assignment, I managed to get a good grade based on my intensive research.

Within my study time, I have had the opportunity to work as an intern in an international organization. The organization dealt with the exportation of products that are locally manufactures, mostly electronic product. The internship period help me gain skills and knowledge about international business. I usually visited different department to understand how they operate and successfully interpret their services in order to ensure that the organization remains successful. Based on my interest on the organization and its international relations, I successfully gained the knowledge of international business and operations.
