 International Business and Marketing Analytics, B.B.A. (Comprehensive Double Major)

The following is a sample degree plan, based on the current catalog. It is based on the 120-credit graduation requirement and assumes no transferred credits, no requirements waived by placement tests, no courses taken in the summer or winter, no repeated courses, and no remedial courses that may be required. This sample degree plan is intended for first-year students entering UW-Eau Claire in the fall semester. Your own degree plan may differ depending on the course of study selected (second major, minor, etc.). UW-Eau Claire cannot guarantee all courses will be offered as shown, but will provide a range of courses that may enable prepared students to fulfill their requirements in a timely period. This sample degree plan is just a guide. Please consult your advisor, your degree audit, and the catalog to create your own degree plan. Note: In order to earn the required minimum of 120 credits for the degree in four years, you should plan to take 15 credits each semester or 30 credits each year. Students pursuing a double major may exceed 120 credits earned and may need to take more than 30 credits per year to graduate in 4 years.

To earn a degree, students must fulfill all University Graduation Requirements, including the Liberal Education (LE) Core.  LE Core course work in the following sample degree plan uses abbreviations such as LE-K1, LE-S2, LE-R3, and LE-I1 to represent the learning outcomes students will meet via completion of their liberal education course work.  Please click here for a description of the Liberal Education Core outcomes and requirements.  Note that the LE Core may be completed through both course and non-course experiences.

Notes: 

• Students pursuing this major are strongly encouraged to pursue the Leadership Studies Certificate.  Coursework in your major and the Leadership Studies certificate may overlap. See your advisor for additional information.
• All International Business majors are required to have an international business experience.
• International Business majors should overlap LE requirements with INTB elective courses as much as possible.
• International Business majors are highly recommended to select a second major in a specific area of business to make themselves more marketable. Students pursuing an International Business double major should plan to test into at least a 200-level foreign language course or take the additional time necessary to complete the requisite language proficiency.
