Global Business Intensives
Led by Pepperdine Graziadio Business School faculty, our one-week Global Business Intensives (GBIs) offer immersive experiences in business centers around the world. Ideal for working professionals, these cultural deep-dives fit easily into almost any schedule and offer robust learning opportunities within a short timeframe. GBIs are open to most full-time and part-time students. Alumni are also eligible to participate in the Global Business Intensive programs on a space-available basis.
Trimester Exchange Program
The Pepperdine Graziadio Business School offers students in most programs the opportunity to spend a full term at one of our 30+ partner universities in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, or South America. Earn academic credit while building a network of international contacts and expanding your knowledge of global business education and practice.
