Abstract

Although they constitute nearly half of the world’s population, developing countries may be overlooked in U.S. business schools. The authors survey U.S. collegiate business programs (n = 80) to explore how developing countries are addressed in the curriculum and co-curriculum. About one third of business programs have some type of curricular offering addressing developing countries, with study abroad programs being most common and academic majors and minors being less common. Institutional affiliation, accreditation, and size are not differentially associated with developing country content, but general campus interest in developing countries is. The authors conclude the article with several recommendations for increasing the attention on developing countries in U.S. business schools.
