The courses that I teach in the USGGG London program are targeted toward Cole College of Business BBA and CYBR Majors. If you are in the Upper Division (or will be soon) you could take ISA 3710 and BUSA 3500 for 6 hours of credit. All Coles students can earn 6 hours of Business Elective credit. Those students who are BBA-IS or BBA-ISA could earn 3 hours of major elective credit for ISA 3710 and either BUSA 3500 for 3 hours of business elective credit or ISA 4490 for 3 more hours of major elective credit.

The KSU Global Learning Financial support program varies each year. Contact your study abroad counselor for more information.
