Course summary
We believe business plays a significant role in providing solutions to the many local, national, and global developmental challenges we face today - particularly in the age of globalisation.
Based at IDS, you will examine the key elements of business operations and their growing relevance to international development.
You will gain an in-depth understanding of economic power shifts and rapid technological transformation amid global inequalities. You will develop the analytical and practical skills needed to understand globalisation processes and their drivers, and to participate in the formulation of policies for sustainable development.
