Overview 

The Business Program builds on unique strengths of the Brandeis International Business School as well as those of liberal arts subjects, such as history, sociology, philosophy and American studies. The curriculum is rooted in the liberal arts and encourages critical thinking and analysis of how business works.

Business courses at Brandeis aim to teach a way of thinking that is rooted in practice. Business school case studies are commonly used to help apply concepts. Guest speakers give talks that bring the real world inside the classroom. Optional internships can give invaluable hands-on experience.
