If you are interested in language and would like to supplement that interest with an international angle, then International Negotiation is the right choice for you. For here you will find a course that combines languages with economics and social sciences.
Given the fact that world trade and society in general are becoming increasingly internationalised, it is important for people to be fluent in foreign languages and to understand foreign cultures, customs and practices. Combining cultural and linguistic skills with knowledge about economics and politics gives you the degree in International Negotiation.
You yourself choose which language you want to specialise in – Arabic, English, French, Chinese, Spanish or German. In addition to becoming highly-proficient in your chosen language, you will be able to communicate with different cultures and you will learn about business economics, marketing and management. We call our graduates international all-rounders in economics, language and culture, in the sense that the degree later allows them to take up a wide range of job opportunities. The course is aimed at the international work of businesses, authorities and organisations.
The majority of the students taking the International Negotiation degree make use of the opportunity to spend time abroad as part of the course. So if you want to study abroad or carry out your internship abroad during your course, this is yet another reason to choose the International Negotiation degree.
