International Business

The Certificate in International Business (IB) is a credential for any globally-focused Duquesne student who wishes to complement their major with practical value-added competencies in IB. 

The fifteen-credit certificate program can be double-counted toward the business core and in many cases toward a student’s major(s). As such, business students would take no more than four additional courses, and many business students could earn the certificate with as few as three or even just two additional courses. Talk to your Student Success Coach for more information.

The certificate program is open to all Duquesne University students.
