Key highlights

An international focus

  • Students enjoy a rich cultural experience and work alongside peers from more than 20 countries, expanding their cross-cultural communication skills and understanding different perspectives.
  • The program also includes field trips to international organizations in Liverpool, which provides a truly global commercial setting to understand cross-border trade and business management.

Experiential learning at its core

  • Students benefit from innovative learning and teaching approaches through the use of simulations, mini consulting projects, business case studies and reflective exercises throughout the program.

An industry mentor will be assigned to students to supervise the project and provide a safe space for students to test new development strategies.
  • Instead of the conventional educator-led lectures, the program is built on the philosophy of inquiry-based learning, in which students are expected to proactively consume, appraise and analyze multi-source data to cultivate problem-solving and decision-making skills.
