International Perspective in the Case Method

In addition to Global Business Experiences and Darden’s exchange programs that take place outside the United States, international issues and perspectives are integrated into the case method in a couple of ways:

  1. International Content in the Curriculum — Darden has many courses that specifically focus on international issues, such as "Conversations & Debates on Globalization," "Emerging Markets Finance," and "Management of International Business." In addition, most core courses and electives also use internationally focused cases throughout the quarter.
  2. International Perspectives in the Classroom — Since the Darden School teaches through the case method and class time is therefore spent in lively discussions, all student viewpoints and input are critical to the learning experience. Approximately one-third of Darden students were born outside of the United States and have significant international experience. Their perspectives and knowledge of global business issues, conduct and cultures enhances the overall learning for everyone.
