General information

The IBMS Course Outlines, together with the IBMS Prospectus, Handbooks and the Student Charter form the Teaching and Exam Regulations, in Dutch: ‘de onderwijs- en examenregeling, de OER’. All of these documents are digitally available via the Hanze website (access www.hanze.nl > Education > International Business School), used by the Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen. The IBMS Course Outlines (in German: Vorlesungsverzeichnis Internationale Betriebswirtschaft) serve several purposes:

to enable students to prepare for classes and to acquire the correct texts;

to enable students to plan their work;

to assist teaching staff to meet the educational aims;

to give partner schools and persons outside the Hanze University of Applied Sciences Groningen an overview of the contents and structure of the modules offered within the IBMS/BW study programme;

to enable the Planning Office to schedule classes;

to enable the Examination Office to create correct assessment schemes. To meet these purposes each module description defines: the module name and examination code used by the Exam Office and the Planning Office, the set-up of classes, the size of the module, the aims of the module, what textbooks students must acquire, and how the module will be assessed. At the date of printing, the information contained in this book was accurate, and as far as possible complete. If any changes or revisions to modules have taken place since then, students will be notified by their teacher at the beginning of the module in question. These changes will only be valid after publication on the Hanze website (access www.hanze.nl > Education > International Business School) under the heading: ' Formal Changes to Course Outline and Prospectus’. The academic year is divided into 4 study periods: Period 1: September – November Period 2: November – January Period 3: February – April Period 4: April – July The periods mentioned in this Course Outline are those in which the module is offered during the academic year 2016-2017. Finally we refer to the IBMS Prospectus/BW Studienführer for all other information necessary to complete your studies at the International Business School and other official IBS channels of communication:

- Hanze.nl - Blackboard

Note: students are strongly advised to check the Hanze website (access www.hanze.nl) and Blackboard for the various module sites in order to obtain the latest information.

take the related practical. If students only fail the Basic Calculation test, they only need to take the calculation practical; if students only fail the English test (score below 5.5/fail), they only need to take the English practical. Students who fail both tests, need to take both practicals. Students, who cannot take one or both tests (for whatever reason), need to take the related practical(s). There is one final resit in the resit week. Please note: due to the fact that students make the entry test before the lessons start, students are entitled to two resit opportunities in their first year of enrolment: once in the exam week following the lessons and once in the following resit round.

Competencies from the IBMS Professional Profile: P2.1, G9.1, G3.1, G6.1, G7.1


Required module for IBMS students

Prerequisites none Level First year Bachelor Course contents The objective of this course is to take students on a learning journey towards

intercultural competence (in business, with an emphasis on exploration of the cultural self and other in the first year). In the first weeks, attention is given to cultural understanding (recognition) of self and other. From there the course deals with intercultural understanding leading to respect. The course finally focuses on how to deal effectively and appropriately with differences and thereby aims to come to the core of intercultural competence (reconciliation and realization), all to be assessed in the graded ICB1 portfolio.

Didactical form / type of course

The course begins with an introductory lecture in which students are introduced to the ICB trajectory. From there weekly 2-hour workshops focus on recognition of the cultural self and cultural differences, developing respect for identified cultural differences by experiencing cultural dilemma’s (reconciliation) in in-class activities, and, finally, how cultural differences can be employed to build global teams (realization). In weeks 1-7, generally, one hour is dedicated to discussing theoretical foundations of cultural competence and one hour to in-class activities leading to input for the four in-class assessed portfolio assignments.
