Consortium for Undergraduate International Business Education
Network of higher education institutions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Consortium for Undergraduate International Business Education (CUIBE) is a network of member universities, with the goal of promoting international business education.[1] It places special emphasis on undergraduate education, and membership in it has been used as an educational quality indicator for new program development in other universities.[2][3]
CUIBE was established in 2003, and has been recognized in the U.S. as a “significant advocate for international education”.[1] Member universities undergo a substantial program review, including an on-campus site visit, before they are accepted into the consortium as full members.[1] Membership in CUIBE has been used as a basis for the development of a benchmarking methodology for empirical research on international business education practices.[4]
Most of the CUIBE member universities have received funding from the Center for International Business Education and Research (CIBER), at the U.S. Department of Education; and several of the founding schools - such as the University of South Carolina, San Diego State University, and Northeastern University - have been recognized as models for foreign language training in international business education.[5][6]
