M.S. in Global Commerce
The program features a built-in thesis component, a capstone project in which students work in global teams and gain hands-on research experience around a dynamic business topic. The thesis is a requirement and an integral part the M.S. in Global Commerce Program. Students are assigned to a three-person team in the fall, based on interests, and either choose from a list of preselected topics or suggest their own topic. The thesis kicks off at the University of Virginia with a course Researching and Writing a Global Business Thesis, followed by research at all three universities. Teams work with a faculty adviser throughout the year and present their defense in June.
Examples of Past Thesis Topics
We look forward to connecting with you about your interest in our Graduate Programs and encourage you to be in touch with any questions you may have.
