Curriculum Design Concept
BA:
Industries in Taiwan are facing the impacts of globalization, regional economic development and transnational operation. Due to this reason, there has been an increased demand for bilingual business talents. In order to aid the transformation of businesses, educating talents with a global economic perspective, competitive edge in business English as well as global business management and trade knowledge has become the key to the success of a business. Therefore, Wenzao put together a team of professional teachers from the Departments of English and International Business Administration, and established the Bachelor Degree Program of International Business English. The program includes school-required classes, program-required courses and elective professional courses.
