LEAD University offers a Bachelor’s degree in International Commerce, a relevant and timely career field. Committed to excellence, the combination of courses which make up this degree is geared toward strengthening key skills and professional competencies. Pursuing an interdisciplinary approach this program focuses on: economics, law, international commerce, and business administration.
In response to the labor market needs and a market research conducted by the University, we have based the Bachelor’s degree program in International Commerce on the following curricular pillars:
- Legal certainty: A legal principle that is built on the notion of trust in the legal system or in the applicability of the legislation of a country, society or region.
- Effective negotiation: Good negotiators not only need to be effective communicators and good listeners. They also have to anticipate events and understand their negotiating counterparts. These are key competencies and skills of professionals who work in international commerce.
- Human talent: Create an environment that fosters creative intelligence and hence the ability to tackle and respond to specific problems, generate ideas of how to address them, look at the world without taking anything for granted, while recognizing our ability to shape our business context.
- Analysis and relationship with the environment: Given that individuals are conditioned, influenced and guided by the society they live in, education must be comprehensive and integrated, and must relate to each individual’s surroundings and to society in general.

Areas of Study
Though economics constitutes the theoretical base of international commerce, the rules that regulate it stem from legal doctrine. Consequently, to better understand international commerce, it must be analyzed from the perspective of different disciplines. Hence our curriculum brings together four disciplines:
- International Commerce
- Law
- Core Courses
- Human Development
These areas of knowledge are the bases for the conceptual and theoretical frameworks underlying this bachelor’s program. They have been articulated using an interdisciplinary approach to better understand the issues that may arise in international commerce as well as develop possible solutions to address these issues from a holistic perspective.
