Research Focus
The Centre for International Business (CIB) started in 1984 and has so far educated about 2.000 graduates holding top positions in international companies in most parts of the world. Our Centre currently runs the MSc International Business, the MSc International Marketing and the BSc Economics and Business Administration programmes at Aalborg University. These programmes are taught in English and using a student centred and problem/project based pedagogy.
Our vision is to be key players in the development and dissemination of curriculum materials, cases and research on international business issues related to the developed, developing and emerging market economies.
Our Centre disseminates its new research ideas through CIB Working Paper Series. It also houses African Journal of Economic and Management Studies.
