DESCRIPTION

The European marketplace is a continually changing and evolving entity. Trade and foreign investment has grown significantly during the development of the Union and there is now a market of close to 500 million people within the EU alone. Since the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) in 2007-8, the EU is at a critical, yet fascinating, stage of its development. This unit is designed to provide students with an understanding of a range of major issues in relation to business "in and with" Europe, with an emphasis upon the European Union (EU). Students will learn about the broad social, economic and politcal environments within which business in Europe is conducted, the structure of business in Europe, conducting business with European firms and a range of current and likely future issues faced by firms doing business in and with Europe.
