The Darla Moore School of Business established the Folks Center for International Business to enhance the global positioning and capabilities of the school. The center is designed to serve as an exclusive academic/corporate partnership for providing strategic direction regarding the overall international activities of the Moore School and to better integrate the corporate world into the process of identifying initiatives and curriculum design for developing critical skills associated with successful global leadership. The center will provide cutting-edge knowledge and develop innovative programmatic initiatives to maintain and enhance the Moore School’s reputation for world-renowned excellence in global business education and research.

A strategic priority of the Folks Center is to enhance the experiential learning component of internationally focused educational programs so as to positively impact the employability of our students. Thus, with our internationally focused programs, the center will promote internship and international consulting project opportunities abroad and with multinational corporations. Correspondingly, an objective of the center is to establish and manage partnerships with internationally connected corporations, organizations and alumni throughout the United States and abroad.
