Global Relations

Welcome to Global Relations

At the BCIT School of Business + Media, we believe that having an international profile is an important strength. Globalization is key in today’s business world, and companies are actively looking for employees who speak multiple languages, work internationally, and bridge cultural differences. That’s why we offer several international programs for students, faculty, and staff.

Taking part in an international experience doesn’t just look good on your resume, it changes your perspective on life. Experiencing new countries creates cultural awareness that isn’t possible to obtain without traveling.

Are you an international student?

We’re thrilled that you’re thinking about coming to BCIT for your semester abroad! Vancouver is a world-class city surrounded by mountains and the sea. Voted the most liveable city five times, Vancouver has a mild climate that allows you to enjoy a walk downtown, go skiing in the mountains, or spend a day at one of the many beaches at nearly anytime of the year.

If you are an international student from one of our Partner Universities, you can study at BCIT Business as an Exchange Student. If there is no exchange agreement between BCIT and your home institution, you can apply as a Study Abroad Student instead.
