ABSTRACT  
Given the increasing rate of globalization and the push to increase international 
education in American colleges and universities, educators have begun to examine 
curriculums, pedagogy and support systems in order to better prepare their 
students for successful careers.  This examination should result in practical 
strategies to encourage students to gain the international sophistication necessary 
to be successful in tomorrow’s business climate. This paper details a study 
designed to identify the factors that affect student’s interest in international 
experiences, courses and careers.
