About this program
Business shapes the world we live in. Decisions made by companies influence economies, societies and the way people connect across borders. In today’s fast-changing global environment, organisations need professionals who understand both business and people. The International Business bachelor at The Hague University of Applied Sciences prepares you for exactly that. You study in an English-language programme with students and lecturers from all over the world, learning how business really works in an international context. Through projects, collaboration and real-life business challenges, you develop a strong foundation in marketing, finance, operations and strategy. At the same time, you learn to work across cultures, adapt to change and connect people, ideas and opportunities. You become a forward-thinking bridge builder: a professional who moves confidently between cultures, industries and perspectives, and knows how to create value in a connected world. Here, international business is not just something you study. It is something you experience every day.
