Global learning requirements
- What are Global Learning required classes and why are they necessary?
- These are mandatory classes that FIU has deemed necessary to enhance students education in diversity and cultural experience. Achieving a degree in International Business requires interaction with different cultures and customs. These classes will not teach everything needed however, they do teach students to be more open-minded and cultural sensitive. Also, these classes are needed to graduate.
- A quick tip some courses meet both Global Learning and Gordon Rule of Writing requirements. You can take 1 course to complete two different course requirements. "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"

- Who is Gordon and what does he want?
- In 1987 Senator Jack Gordon introduced a new state rule that was aimed at helping first and second-year students to succeed in all facets of their lives through critical, analytical and communication skills. However, later revised to focus on quality writing rather than quantity writing.
