American Business Immersion Study --- Students registering for this class must be Ross international students who are required to take the class for their CPT application or Ross U.S. resident students who are undertaking an unpaid internship where the employer requires them to receive academic credit for the internship. This course is designed to complement the understanding and awareness of the global nature of business gained through Ross MBA core coursework. The course will explore American culture as it applies to the U.S. job search and working in the U.S. business environment. The course consists of an independent project decided upon by the instructor and student that focuses on: a) The differences in the U.S. job search as compared to the job search in the student's country of origin or; b) The differences in the working U.S. business environment compared to working in the business environment of the student's country of origin. The project is designed to help students reflect on their educational and internship experiences to better prepare them for the full-time job search in the U.S.
