Study Abroad

Zarb School in China (Beijing)

The Zarb School’s program in China offers Hofstra business students the opportunity to integrate their knowledge about international business/marketing gained in classrooms by exposing them to the real-life business environment in China, the fastest-growing economy in the world.  Through such field experiences, students gain valuable experiential insights and perspectives that enhance and supplement their learning at Hofstra University.  Students take MKT/IB 170 International Marketing in two stages: they attend three weeks of classes on campus where they learn about international marketing, and then they travel to China to experience the subject first hand and attend more lectures at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing.  Students visit businesses and learn about business practices in China.  Local scholars and company personnel will give guest lectures to expose students to the local environment.  For further information about Zarb School in China, please contact Dr. Yong Zhang, Department of Marketing and International Business, 127 Weller Hall, (516) 463-5713, or via Email.
