About this course

Understanding Globalization and International Management for your CSU credit.

What is Globalization and International Management?

Globalization and International Management looks at how businesses operate across countries and why managing them is different from managing a company that only works in one market. It covers topics like global competition, international strategy, culture, trade rules, outsourcing, and how managers lead teams made up of people from different backgrounds and locations.

How the course teaches you

Globalization and International Management is a 3-credit self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, attendance, and a final exam. The grade is split 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam, so students need to keep up steadily rather than rely on one test. When the course is completed and the transcript is sent, Columbia Southern University recognizes it as MGT 4302 – International Management, a named course equivalency.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course helps students understand how companies operate across borders, which is useful in roles that involve global customers, international suppliers, or diverse teams. At Columbia Southern University, that knowledge can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, where MGT 4302 – International Management can fit into the plan. It also gives students a practical foundation for handling trade rules, culture, and international strategy in everyday work.

Taking this course toward CSU

CSU allows up to 90 transfer credits, which is 75% of a program, so students still need to check how this course fits within the remaining CSU requirements.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit for students who want to move credits into Columbia Southern University and make use of a named equivalency rather than an elective guess. It can work well for degree completers and adult learners who are trying to stay within CSU's transfer ceiling of up to 90 credits, or 75% of a program.
