/ t:-==============================================================-==================== THE THUNDERBIRD MYSTIQUE The Thunderbird Mrstiaue More than 20,000 Thunderbird alumni occupy executive offices in multinational enterprises around the world. The bond that binds them is that indefinable something they call the "Thunderbird Mystique." It is a group of alumni living, working, and making business contacts in every state in the United States and 106 countries. It is the "First Tuesday" tradition in Washington1 D.C., Omaha, Paris, Mexico City, Taipei, and 157 other cities around the world where alumni meet to develop social and business relationships. It is strangers who become instant friends when both learn they are T'birds. , It is an on-campus camaraderie where everyone knows everyone, and lifelong friendships transcend international barriers. It is a team spirit that develops from the challenges of a demanding curriculum. It is the cacophony of students practicing dialogues at the language tables in the Dining Hall. Yes, the Thunderbird Mystique is real, but it can't be found at the average graduate school. It is a special combination of unique individuals, outstanding faculty, demanding classes, campus camaradarie, and alumni contacts. It starts at Thunderbird and leads around the world. From Austria to Zimbabwe, Thunderbird attracts students interested in a career in the international arena. "The 'Thunderbird Mystique' ... may be difficult to define, but it certainly exists. The students, 26 percent of whom come from 60 overseas countries are, undoubtedly, a different breed. Their belief in internationalism, such a contrast from the narrow introverted outlook of so many American business students, shines through the briefest conversation and their loyalty to the School is intense ... Not one felt that they were not getting value for t' ,r money."

More than 20,000 graduates are now working around the world in a variety of positions that utilize their unique Thunderbird education. Numerous articles and surveys have cited Thunderbird as the premier graduate school of international management. In the increasingly interdependent world economy, there is great need for individuals who have an international management education. In An Action Agenda for American Competitiveness, a coalition of corporate, university, and Congressional leaders admonished, "Colleges and universities must significantly strengthen their international studies courses-language, cultural, political, economic- and make them readily available to U.S. business executives as part of their own lifelong learning programs." For 42 years, Thunderbird has made this objective the foundation for its tripartite curriculum. International commerce today represents a trillion dollars in. worldwide business opportunity, and international economic issues are constantly in the forefront of modern business decision-making. Various factors have affected international trade in recent years: changing political ideologies in a substantial part of the world, the complexities of ipetroeconomics, changing comparative advantages, plus accompanying trade deficits and payment defaults. Such factors are creating a shift in traditional world trade and business patterns, causing an emphasis on joint ventures, especially in the automotive, pharmaceutical and electronics industries. We are also witnessing a trend in reverse direct investment with an increasing number of foreign firms establishing their facilities in the United States. All of this points to the need for individuals properly educated in the complex realities of international commerce and cross-cultural communication. Thunderbird is the pioneer in this field of international management education, and the Thunderbird alumni network with graduates working in 106 countries is an incomparable resource. In addition, such education can also lead to a domestic assignment involving international transactions or a career as an entrepreneur with a global outlook. Approximately 80 percent of the graduates live in the United States and are largely involved in the international activities of their employers, which include small and large corporations as well as nonprofit organizations and government agencies. Citicorp is the number one employer of Thunderbird graduates with 174 alumni working for Citicorp and its subsJdiaries worldwide. Pictured (l-rJ are Citibank intern Stuart Hinson; Jeff Smith '82, product manager, shelter products; and Faith Massingale, vice president, asset group product manager. "Slowly, but surely, hands-on international experience is moving out of the 'nice, but not necessary' category and into the 'must have' slot for those on the corporate fast track. Numerous companies are redesigning their management development programs to include international assignments. Many are cutting older people without such experiencefrom succession plans and asking executive recruiters to find high-level internationalists to fill the gaps. The reason for the change: competition from foreign countries, both in overseas markets and at home. The rivalry has intensified in nearly every industry, and American companies are rolling out all competitive weapons in their arsenals. They are buying materials from all over the world to keep costs down, they are tailoring products to the tastes of different cultures, and they are encouraging geographically dispersed divisions to share ideas."

He realized that U.S. business was going to be widely involved internationally after the war ended. He also realized that very few Americans were properly trained for international assignments. He decided to do something about the problem. Thunderbird Field The School was chartered as a nonprofit Arizona corporation on April 8, 1946, with General Yount as President. In June of that year, the War Assets Administration turned over to the new school Thunderbird Field No. 1, a deactivated pilot training center sixteen miles northwest of Phoenix. Classes started on October 1, 1946, and the first class graduated on June 14, 1947. The founders' vision was to create a national center of higher education where men and women might prepare themselves for careers in international commerce and management, in either industry or government service. Nrune Change 1 The School was founded under the name American Institute for Foreign Trade. The name was officially changed in November 1968 to Thunderbird Graduate School of International Management, and in December 1973, it was changed to American Graduate School of International Management. The School's nickname, "Thunderbird," remains widely known in international circles. More Progress Dramatic changes have occurred in the School over the past 18 years under the leadership of Dr. William Voris, who retired from the presidency June 30, 1989. During those years new courses were added in all departments, and instruction in Arabic, Chinese and Japanese were added to the five languages already taught. The world business foundation course structure and the core curriculum were developed, the language department added a business language requirement, and the international studies department instituted a new foundation course. The campus has also undergone dramatic change with the addition of the Talley Career Services Building in 1978 and the Snell Learning Center in 1980. In 1987, the William Voris Hall of Modern Languages, the Joan and David Lincoln Computer Services Building, and the EricksonAlumni Pavilion and Mall were dedicated as phase I of the proposed Faculty Center. A New President As of July 1, 1989, Dr. Roy A. Herberger Jr., became the eighth president of Thunderbird. Formerly one of the nation's leading business school deans, Dr. Herberger came to Thunderbird from a position as Dean of the Edwin L Cox School of Business at Southern Methodist University. He had previously served as associate dean for academic affairs in the School of Business at the University of Southern California, where he founded and directed the International Business Education and Research program. President's "E" Award On November 9, 1965, the United States Government presented the President's "E" Certificate for Export Service to the School for an outstanding contribution to the Export Expansion Program of the United States. The President's "Star E" Award was presented on March 24, 1971. The "E" flag continues to fly on the flagpole at Founder's Hall. Courses for Executives By 1951, the standard one-year educational program of the School had gained such a high reputation that leading corporations requested the development of a special executive training course. A separate program was arranged, the Key Manager Courses, to give corporate executives and their spouses intensive conversational language training in preparation for an overseas assignment. The program continues under the direction of the Thunderbird Management Center. The air control tower with its distinctive blue glass is a campus landmark and currently houses the Office of Academic: Affairs. 8 THE THUNDERBIRD NETWORK THE TIIUNDERBIRD NETWORK No other school in the world can offer an international alumni body to match the Thunderbird network. Mention international business, and "Thunderbird" is the code word. Work in international business and Thunderbirds are everywhere: in the international divisions of nearly every major multinational corporation; in every government agency that deals with international trade; in all of the world's top advertising agencies; in the international office of nearly every state department of commerce; and in almost every major international insurance firm.

No question about it, Thunderbirds are the "in" group in international circles. Alumni Relations Office The Alumni Relations Office maintains current computerized records on alumni and their present locations as well as their job titles and employers. In addition, the office links more than 20,000 alumni around the globe through the Thunderbird Alumni Association. The network includes resource persons, who have facts about alumni meetings and business conditions in their particular region. The alumni publication, Thunderbird Magazine, is produced quarterly, keeping graduates around the world informed about news of their friends, business associates, their alma mater, and global affairs. The Jonas Mayer Distinguished Alumnus Award is bestowed once each year by the Thunderbird Alumni Association upon an alumnus who has reflected great credit on American multinational business. The association also grants awards for career achievement in business and industry, public service, entrepreneurship, banking and finance, and service to Thunderbird .Alumni reunions are held annually each November.in conjunction with the Thunderbird balloon races. · "Before entering Thunderbird I was fortunate enough to have worked for an international consulting firm that sent me worldwide to analyze foreign economics. The majority of my time was spent overseas talking to expatriates. I found that whether I was in Europe or Africa. Thunderbird and its alumni were very highly regarded. Whenever I spoke with my clients about returning to school, Thunderbird was the overwhelming recommendation from almost all. Those of them who were T'bird alumni enjoyed the vast Thunderbird network in both business and social relationships. Those that haven't attended school here all recognized its merit ... The benefits from Thunderbird are more than just the formal training we've all received. I think we'll agree that the friendships we've made here. and the memories of people we have met will last forever."

Source: Office of Alumni Relations, 1989 10 A A Dots on the map above represent 106 countries around the world in which Thunderbird alumni live and work, The alumni in Europe/Middle East and in Asia hold Tbird get-togethers once a year. In addition, alumni in more than 150 cities hold monthly or seasonal events, including social events on the first Tuesday of every month, holiday gatherings, seminars, and career enhancement programs. "Whatever your reasons for being here, there is one common denominator: each one of you believes that the world at large is worth knowing about. Each of you understands your life can be a richer experience if you can relate beyond the present boundaries of your existence. For that reason alone, you will soon become part of something that is hard to describe. Some compare us to an international society, club, clique, etc.; but more often it's left undefined and referred to as the Thunderbird Mystique, the network of people around the globe that have a special relationship for having shared this unique international experience. Expect to learn more than books could ever offer because the priceless library of Thunderbird is the presence of people - people like you, offering world views from worlds apart." Dr. William Voris President Emeritus American Graduate School of International Management Opening Ceremony August, 1988 THE THUNDERBIRD NETWORK LOCATION OF ALUMNI WORLDWIDE EXTERNAL AFFAIRS The Office of External Affairs conducts programs and activities for Thunderbird to develop understanding and financial support from all its publics for its educational goals.

Her goal is a mQl'.keting operations position in Europe. The Career Services Center hosted 233 employer visits during the 12-month period 1988-2989. The major focus of the Career Services Center, located in the Franz G. Talley building, is service both to the students and the employers. Emphasis is upon providing profes• sional career counseling, planning and placement services to the students while maximizing recruiting success for the employers. The students are taught that placement is a personal process depending upon their own knowledge, research, initiative and resourcefulness. While at Thunderbird, they learn career management skills through a process that extends through each semester. The Career Services Center helps students to: -Engage in effective self-assessment; -Obtain occupational/employment information; -Explore the full range of employment opportunities; -Present themselves effectively as candidates; and -Obtain optimal employment in the careers of their choice. 12 Thunderbird graduates are thus able to apply these skills over a lifetime of career growth. Recruiting information is available from coordinators who schedule on•campus interviews and post positions of companies not able to recruit on campus. Students must be registered and making sa\isfactory progress toward the degree to be eligible to use the recruiting services of the Career Services Center. A Resume Book is published for each semester's graduating class and distributed to more than 1,000 prospective employers. The intent of this publication is to provide the factual information about students to a large number of organizations representing both domestic and international operations. Students make use of the Career Services Center lobby where they have access to a Resource Center of more than 1,500 company and organizational files, employer and CAREER SERVICES geographic directories, and career planning books and periodicals. The Thunderbird Career Guidance Information System, a computerized service designed to answer more than 500 career-related questions, is the first equipment in the new Johnson & Johnson Career Management Media Room. All other equipment and software was provided by a grant from Johnson & Johnson. Each semester, all new students receive the Placement Manual written specifically for the career planning and placement needs of Thunderbird's graduate students. Outlined in that manual are the steps necessary to utilize the resource materials and personnel of the center effectively. Both the Graduate Associate Program and the Career Services Student Committee present career workshops and programs to help other students. Workshops by the Graduate Associates include career planning, resume writing, and interviewing workshops, which give students the opportunity to see themselves in videotaped practice interviews. The Career Services Center Student Committee schedules tours of the center, plans events to help students meet with employers and posts the Ad/Search listing of positions published in major international newspapers. . Faculty cooperate with the Career Services Center to host recruiters and to recommend employers and alumni for the Open Forum with Employers. These programs are scheduled in the Career Services Center lobby where employers share. with students information about their career areas, organizational operations and the international marketplace. Faculty members also assist in the marketing of interns, recent graduates and alumni to prospective employers. The Thunderbird Graduate Management Internship program integrates academic study with meaningful work experience at a professional level. See the Course Descriptions section for further information. Alumni, too, benefit from the resources of the Career Services Center. The Alumni Placement Service publishes two periodical bulletins: 1) the Graduate Update, designed as a free service for one year for recent graduates who must continue a job search off campus, and 2) the Alumni Opportunities bulletin designed for the alumni who have experience and have been graduated for a minimum of three years. A registration fee is charged for the Alumni Opportunities bulletin. Management recruiters from corporations, small businesses and executive search firms list positions regularly in both publications for Thunderbird alumni. Thunderbird Graduate Management Internship Internship education at the American Graduate School formally integrates academic study with meaningful, professional-level applied experience. It blends the application of theory with the state of today's practice and thereby enhances the student's professional preparation. The primary objective of the program is to maximize the benefit and value of the experience, consistent with the student's academic objectives and career interests. The Thunderbird Graduate Management Internship is organized into two regularly offered courses: 5910 provides part-time (parallel) and 5930 provides full-time (alternating) internship experience. Descriptions of both courses can be found in the Department of World Business and the Department of International Studies sections of the Bulletin. Students who participate in the 5930 internship must return to campus, enroll, and complete a minimum of six hours to receive credit for this course. Tuition is computed on the same basis as other academic courses. The term of work may he any one of the three academic terms (fall, spring, or summer). A formal paper integrating the internship experience and academic objectives, as measured by the accomplishment of defined learning objectives, is submitted at the conclusion of the work experience. Only one internship will be allowed for credit during the period of a student's enrollment at the American Graduate School of International Management. Internship assignments are limited in number and are available with a variety of multinational business and government agencies. The credits for Internship may be applied toward the 42-hour minimum requirements, but may not be used to meet departmental requirements in either World Business or International Studies. Students interested in the program should contact the Career Services Center where the match is made between employer needs and student interests.

Each spends a year or 18 months immersed in the languages, customs and ways of business in foreign countries. The student body isn't like any other. It is an assemblage of overachievers, average age 27, who come from all over the world. "To get through the challenging curriculum at Thunderbird, teamwork is essential, so students study, eat and socialize together, often in several languages. In the campus pub one recent Thursday night, students were playing pool and having intense conversations in an atmosphere of genuine multinational camaraderie. Eight languages, including Arabic and Chinese, are taught at Thunderbird. "Most have lived or worked overseas; many come to Thunderbird already speaking another language or two."

Normally, more than 50 countries are represented in the enrollment. All applicants .are expected to meet the same requirements for admission. The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is required of all applicants, and the TOEFL is also required in some cases (explained below}. College and university graduates in good standing who, upon matriculation, hold a bachelor's degree or higher from accredited institutions recognized by the American Graduate School of International Management are eligible to be considered for admission as full-time students. This normally means a degree awarded after four years of university study at an accredited institution. Applicants holding degrees involving fewer than four years of undergraduate study are advised. to communicate in writing with the Dean of Admissions prior to making application. Recognizing the diversity in personality traits, skills, and talents required to satisfy the yaried demands of business enterprises and government agencies, the School seeks a similar diversity in its student body as demonstrated by background, experience and previous scholastic attainment. No single attribute outweighs others in the selection of members of an entering class. Admission Deadlines Applications for admission are considered until the desired number of incoming students is reached for a particular term. Generally, this requires that applications be complete six months to one year prior to the commencement of the term requested. Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) Students are selected on the basis of their composite application. The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is required of all applicants. This score is taken into account with the cumulative grade point average. Functional limitations and cultural backgrounds of students taking this test are considered when evaluating the score. Particulars can be obtained from GMAT, Educational Testing Service, CN 6103, Princeton, New Jersey 08541. Some applicants are required to take the TOEFL, described on the next page. Academic Requirements A grade point average of 3.0 (BJ on a 4.0 scale is regarded as a minimal standard, which is taken into consideration with the GMAT score. Other factors, especially professional experience, as well as extracurricular activities, are considered by the evaluators. Particular attention is given to aspects of the candidate's record that demonstrate maturity, leadership capabilities, and aptitude for a career in multinational business and international affairs. 16 TOEFL TEST DATES FRI., SEPT. 15, 1989 SAT., MAR. 10, 1990 SAT., NOV. 18, 1989 FRI., APR. 6, 1990 FRI., DEC. 8, 1989 SAT., MAY 12, 1990 SAT., JAN. 13, 1990 FRI., JUN. 1, 1990 FRI., FEB. 9, 1990 Obtain the 1989-90 TOEFL Bulletin for registration information by writing to: Test of English as a Foreign Language P.O.

If, after acceptance, a student wishes to defer matriculation to a subsequent term, reactivation . of candidacy for admission is effected by submitting -a letter to the Dean of Admissions. The candidate's applica- . tion will then be re-evaluated along with those of other candidates for admission to the particular entering class. Application documents are retained for three years. English Language Requirement Since English is the language of instruction used at American Graduate School, it is essential that all participants be prepared to understand rapid, idiomatic English as spoken in lectures and group discussions, to read English with ease, and to express their thoughts clearly in spoken and written English. Failure to meet this requirement at the School constitutes sufficient grounds upon which the School will require a student to withdraw: ADMISSION School Representatives Representatives of the School visit a large number of college and university campuses throughout the country to talk with prospective applicants. Such visits of School officials are supplemented by those of alumni of the School who visit local universities and are available to confer with interested candidates. A partial listing of Alumni Educational Counselors is located at the back of the Bulletin.

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) Applicants whose undergraduate instruction was primarily in any language other than English must submit proof of proficiency in English by means of scores obtained in the Test of English as a Foreign Language [TOEFL). Inquiries regarding this test should be addressed to the Educational Testing Service, Bax 899, Princeton, NJ 08541, U.S.A. All students whose native language is other than English must take the Thunderbird English Placement Test at the time of registration. A student scoring below the acceptable level may be required to take basic English as a Second Language instruction elsewhere prior to being allowed to enroll in courses at Thunderbird. Application and financial aid forms may be obtained from the Office of Admissions. The following credentials should subsequently be forwarded to the same office: • A completed official application form, accompanied by an application fee of $40 which cannot be waived or refunded. • An official transcript from each college attended. Students presently enrolled in college or graduate school should submit a transcript of work completed to date. While the admission decision can be made on the basis of a partial transcript, the final official transcript evidencing the award of the qualifying degree must be received by the Office of Admissions prior to matricu• lation at the School. • Three letters of recommendation. • Official notice of the score on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) if the applicant's undergraduate instruction was in a language other than English. • Official notice of the score received on the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMATJ. The Thunderbird code number is 4003. Following the receipt of a Conditional Acceptance, the applicant must send a $250 tuition deposit. An Official Acceptance will then be sent, provided the term is still open when the deposit is-received and the application is fully processed. English as a Second Language (ES) Courses Regardless of the score on the TOEFL, the Thunderbird English Placement Test is the sole criterion in determining whether a student is required to take English as a Second Language (ES) elsewhere before registering here, to enroll in ES courses at Thunderbird, or to obtain a partial or total ES waiver, Students enrolled in the Intensive English course receive individual academic counseling preparatory to undertaking further studies leading to the M.I.M. degree. Before these students can participate in academic registration each semester, their class schedules must be approved by the English instructors. Students who are required to enroll in Intensive English (ES3000) will find it necessary to spend an additional semester at Thunderbird in order to meet degree requirements. "I always wanted to be active in international trade or international business and I never could seem to get into it until I came across information about Thunderbird. I thought it sounded really promisfog and interesting, so I applied and that's how I got started. It was funny because when I was looking for a job after my undergraduate degree, there weren't a whole lot of possibilities. Nobody was really interested; and the minute I had my Thunder• bird degree, it seemed like a lot of people were interested." Horst Hotzy '75 Fmancial Assistance Admission to the School does not imply financial assistance of any kind. All students are considered for the Worldwide Assistantships but this aid is extremely limited. All foreign nationals must arrange complete financing of at least one calendar year of studies at the School prior to the issuance of documents for student visas. Director/International Marketing Circle Seal Controls 17 STUDENT SERVICES Health Services Health services are directed by a registered nurse who works in close cooperation with area physicians. The School infirmary provides emergency first aid and routine medications for common ailments. A physician assistant is available to see students and covered dependents on an appointment basis from 8:30to 11:30 a.m., Monday through Friday. In case of acute illness, the nurse is on call 24 hours a day and may refer students to a nearby clinic or hospital for emergency care. Student Insurance All full-time and special students are insured for both sickness and accidents during regular academic terms under the Student Accident and Sickness Insurance Program. Prescription insurance is included for regular students. American spouses and children may be covered by the health and accident insurance, but not the prescription insurance, through payment of an additional premium at the time of financial registration. Resident foreign, nonimmigrant spouses and children of foreign students must be covered by this insurance plan, unless proof is given of existing similar coverage under another insurance plan. A waiver of the student insurance program will be given to any student who presents proof of similar coverage at the time of registration. Students waiving the program will receive a partial refund of their tuition and fees. However. students waiving the program may still use the campus health center facilities and schedule appointments with the on-campus doctors. All referrals to off-campus physicians and labs would be at the expense of the student's personal health insurance plan.

Waivers A waiver is the official recognition by an academic department that a student has met a departmental requirement for graduation in some manner other than having completed course work at the School. Prospective students are encouraged to complete as many introductory courses as possible prior to matriculation in order to maximize the time available for upper-level courses focusing on areas of special interest. Degree candidates may qualify for waivers through courses completed at other institutions or, for some requirements but not all, successful performance on examinations administered by CLEP or by the faculty. If an examination is to be used as the basis for waiving a 3000-level course, the score must be presented and the waiver entered in the records prior to registration for any 4000-level class for which the 3000-level course is a prerequisite. Details of requirements for waivers are indicated on the following pages. Waivers in no way constitute a reduction in the minimum of 42 semester hours required for the M.I.M. degree. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS '-••N Through morlcetingprojectsclosses, internships, and business simulation courses, students ore constantly dealing with projects sponsored by companies and getting hands-on experience Jn the international monetary market. Explanation of Course Numbering Courses at the 3000 level are basic introductory lecture courses in the subject described. Students with graduate or undergraduate backgrounds in these subjects may, on occasion, waive these courses in accordance with departmental and School requirements. Courses at the 4000 level are advanced courses on specialized topics which assume some prior familiarity with the subject matter. Courses at the 5000 level are limited-enrollment seminars which students may take only by permission of the instructor. Permission of the instructor means that the instructor has the right to select the students allowed to enroll in the class, including the right to set appropriate qualitative standards, in addition to the established prerequisites. Courses numbered 5901, 5902 and 5903 are independent research projects offered in each department. They are usually open only to advanced degree candidates and to those who have demonstrated the academic maturity, scholarly interest, and technical ability required to undertake research with a minimum of supervision. Written permission to enroll in Independent Research courses must be obtained by the student during the semester prior to the semester in which the course will be taken. "I was born in Viet Nam, lived ten years in Ireland, and five years in Hong Kong before going to college in Kansas. Then, 1 went to Taiwan for six months and fell in love with Asia. I looked at [other schools], but T'bird seemed very practical and I'm a very practical person. It had language, which I wanted; it had area studies, which I wanted; as well as lots of business. The tripartite system is the reason I come here. The students are extremely friendly, extremely helpful. I had just come back from a year in Taiwan, and six weeks in Japan, and I was a little disoriented coming back to the States. Everyone was so helpful that it made me feel very much at home very quickly." Kate E. O'Neill Thunderbird Class of 1988 B.A., French, University of Kansas, 19B1 M.A., Linguistics, 1985 39 DEGREE REQUIREMENTS Time Period Special Students The 42-hour program can be completed in three semesters (one and one-half years} or two full semesters and a summer term by students able to waive several of the foundation courses. Although one calendar year suffices for the majority of students, candidates are urged to consider the depth and quality of education available in the curriculum rather than just the time required to complete minimum requirements. Many of the rare and challenging courses at the 4000 and 5000 level are available only to those who enter with substantial waivers or who extend their enrollment for an extra term. All work should be completed within five years preceding the graduation date. The School admits as Special Students a limited number of applicants who wish to gain advanced training by taking individual courses, but do not intend to become degree candidates. Special Students taking courses for credit must complete all course requirements including final examinations. Special Students are subject to all School regulations. Special Students who later desire to complete work toward the degree requirements of the School, may apply for admission as full-time students, subject to the usual admissions criteria. Credits earned while in status of Special Students may be counted toward the M.I.M. degree only if the student was qualified for admission as a regular degree candidate at the time the courses were completed. Curriculum Changes The School reserves the right to make whatever changes it finds appropriate at any time in course scheduling, assignment of instructor, and prerequisites. A few courses are offered in alternate semesters or as demand warrants. ,1 .... ~}- i -, • , - lit"" • -:. '\'4 ~ .' ' Auditing Students wisru.ng to audit courses must obtain approval for an audit during the period allotted for changes of schedule, as described in this Bulletin. Changes of schedule to audit status will not be allowed following this period. The charge for auditing is calculated on the same basis as tuition payable for courses taken for credit. Audits are not permitted in language courses in Levels I, II and III, nor are they allowed in most seminars. Courses being audited are included in the maximum number of semester hours allowed per term. Certificate of Advanced Study Special students, or students who do not complete the full requirements for the M.I.M., may be given the Certificate of Advanced Study, provided they have completed 12 or more semester hours of work, with a cumulative grade point average of at least 2. 70. A special tuition rate is allowed spouses of full-time students. (See section on tuition and fees.) Spouses are urged to take advantage of this program, as firms sending married employees abroad usually wish to establish the degree of cultural adaptability and interest of the spouses of their executive personnel. Participation in this academic program is construed as a strong indication of such interest. ·1 .

The curriculum of the Department of International Studies is focused on international business environment and is designed to acquaint students with foreign areas and their cultural management styles. It is also intended to provide students with an understanding of international public policy issues that confront multinational corporations, since it is increasingly government, in its variety of forms, that is shaping the climate in which business decisions are made. The curriculum of the Department of International Studies is intended to provide the student with a conceptual framework for informed analysis of a foreign milieu. These qualities, plus language skills, are essentially what differentiates "domestic" from international management education. ,_l 1' .J9.t, '' - ' :;, . , ,, • - '.,,,.-. - ~.j. / , :'. ~ .•. #; •: t+-'\.~....... :. fi'. - l I• ' .. ,. ... . ·;~r .,. . .. : ...:f,_ . ., ~, ..,. ~ , .f,.,A, ,"'\;,, ·,.. ... ~ ,~:- ' ' •• ,1 ·t w • 1, '. f ':' -~"!, ,h "' f:t '-~t~'- ;t~: ... ~ ... ~J:· . ~1 · ;.

In 1988 it all came together when I contracted with Banco Sabadell to assist their clients in entering the U.S. market. My situation is exactly what I dreamed about while in your class.

If you recall, the business plan I wrote was probably the worst of all time, but it started me on the path of learning to organize and plan properly. More than just teaching how to do a plan, you also demystified the process of starting a business.... You helped shift my atti· tude from 'What am I capable of doing?' to 1Where do I want to invest my time and energy? What needs to be done? and How much will it cost?'

WB5920 MASTER'S THFSIS (4 hours) Rules and regulations pertaining to the writing of the Master's Thesis may be obtained from the Chair of the Department of World Business, as each department reserves the right to set its own standards with regard to content, subject matter, and form. A student wishing to write a thesis must be a candidate for the degree of Master of International Management. The subject of the thesis must be approved in the preceding semester. Application forms for the thesis may be obtained from the Office of Academic Affairs. The course is offered on a pass/no credit basis. WB5930 INTERNSHIP: FULL-TIME (3 hours] In this type of internship, students alternate a term of study with a term of work on a full-time job with industry or government. ·Participating organizations include Mellon Bank and Chemical Bank, General Motors, R.C.A., DuPont and Eli Lilly.International, as examples. To be admitted to the program, students must have completed two semesters (minimum 24 credit hours) of American Graduate School study. Students who have completed the requirements for the degree are not eligible to participate in this course. Arrangements must be made in the semester preceding the actual work experience. Internship credit may not be used to satisfy departmental requirements. Prerequisite: permission of the instructor• and concurrence of the Chair of the Department of World Business. Internships are graded on a pass/no credit basis. NOTE: Not more than one 5900 or higher numbered course may be taken in any one term: these courses are unstructured and may not be applied toward meeting department requirements. *Permission of the instructor means that students must make personal contact with the instructor of the course and obtain written permission prior to registration or preregistration. "I chose Thunderbird because it wasn't a generic MBA; I wanted to avoid that. I reviewed the cur.. riculum and I liked what I saw. I liked the fact that they incorporate practical experience into the curriculum, including the workshops. The finance and advertising workshops really appeal to me. I've participated in the Thunderbird graduate manage.ment internship, which is a full-time internship program, so I'm gaining even more practical experience in bank marketing at Citibank "One of the things that is unique about Thunderbird is that we work on real world problems here. We're not working out of a textbook; we're solving real world problems." Stuart Hinson '88 , . · Marketing Assistant Carnation Company 68 ACADEMIC REGULATIONS CREDIT HOURS AND COURSE LOAD The maximum number of semester hours that a student may take (including audits) is 15 in a regular semester, 12 in summer, and 3 in Winterim. One additional credit hour per term is permitted only for students enrolled in 7-hour or 4-hour language classes. CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT Concurrent enrollment in another institution must be approved in writing prior to registration by the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Students may not enroll for a total course load greater than listed above. AUDITING Students wishing to audit courses must obtain approval for an audit during the period allotted for changes of schedule, as described in this Bulletin. Changes of schedule to audit status will not be allowed following this period. The charge for auditing is calculated on the same basis as tuition payable for courses taken for credit. Audits are not permitted in language courses in Levels I, II and III, nor are they allowed in most seminars. Courses being audited are included in the maximum number of semester hours allowed per term. A student who has completed relevant graduate-level study at an acceptable institution may, subject to approval, transfer up to a maximum of three semester hours of graduate work completed after receipt of the undergraduate or other qualifying degree with a grade of B (3.0) or better, provided that such work meets the standards set by the individual departments. Additional credits are allowed in conformity with special institutional agreements. The School is the sole judge of what constitutes the qualifying degree for admission into graduate study and therefore what credits may be considered for transfer. For example, transfer credit petitions will not be approved for work taken during or prior to the completion of such degrees as the B.A. or B.S., Licenciado, Maitrise, Diplom or Staatsexamen, Sivilakonom, Civilingenjor, Meester, to . name a few. Students who transfer in credits from courses which, in the opinion of the relevant department, substantially duplicate courses offered here, cannot enroll in the duplicated courses for credit. Grades of transfer work are not considered in computing the student's grade point average at Thunderbird. The transferring of hours in no way constitutes the waiver of a course. Basic language courses are not acceptable for transfer. CHANGE OF SCHEDULE The period for changes in schedule without payment of a fee is five class days in the Fall or Spring Semester, three days in the Summer Session, and two days in Winterim. No courses may be added to a student's program after five class days in the Fall or Spring Semester, and three class days in the Summer Session. Upon payment of a $5.00 fee, following the free periods listed above, students are permitted to withdraw from courses up to the end of the eighth week in the Fall or Spring Semester or the end of the fifth week in a Summer Session. The appropriate notation (WP or WF) will be entered on the official transcript of the student's record. FINANCIAL REGISTRATION Students who do not financially register by the end of the second day of classes will have their academic registration cancelled. Students may reinstate their academic registration on a space available basis. TRANSFER OF CREDITS GRADING CODE Grades are given and recorded as follows: D+ = 1.3 A = 4.0 A- - 3.7 = 3.3 B = 3.0 B- = 2.7 C+ = 2.3 C = 2.0 C- = 1.7 B+ D DF p AU WP "' 1.0 0.7 0.0 = Audit = = = Pass = Withdrawal Passing WF = I = NC = Withdrawal Failing Incomplete No Credit Only courses completed with a grade of C- or better are acceptable in satisfaction of graduation requirements for the degree of Master of International Management or for the Certificate of Advanced Study. Should a student receive a grade of lower than C- in a required course or a prerequisite course, the student must repeat the course before going on to the next higher level. (Academic Regulations continued on the following page.} Each semester Th1111derbird attracts a variety of speakers on topics of international interest. Hi11 Excellency Dr. Clovis Maksoud of Lebanon, Ambassador of the J.easue of Arab Stafell to the United Nations, 11poke on campus recently. 69 ACADEMIC REGULATIONS ACADEMIC PROBATION All students on academic probation must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0 before being permitted to enroll in the following semester. This rule applies to students admitted on academic probation and those on academic probation because of failure to maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.0. 5900 SERIES COURSES An individual may enroll in only one 5900 or higher numbered course in any one term. Not more than one 5900 or higher numbered course may be taken in absentia. Courses numbered in the 5900s are unstructured and may not be used to meet departmental graduation requirements. They are always graded on a pass/no credit basis. CORRECTION OF ERRORS IN GRADING When filed with the Registrar's Office, semester grades are final and are not subject to change by reason of a revision of the instructor's judgment; Changes may be made only to correct an error in computation or transcription. RETAKING COURSES A student may be permitted to retake a course once in the hope of improving a grade. A letter grade earned in the repeated course will expunge the original letter grade. However, the original course remains on the transcript with an asterisk indicating that the course was retaken. DISCHARGING INCOMPLETE GRADES Grades of "I" may be discharged upon completing the course requirements to the satisfaction of the instructor, within one year, or within the student's next term of enrollment, whichever is the shorter time. Otherwise, the Incomplete becomes a No Credit [NC). It is the student's responsibility to make necessary arrangements with the instructor with regard to receiving and removing the Incomplete. The Incomplete grade received in the basic language courses must be removed before any subsequent higher level course may be undertaken. CLASS ATfENDANCE Class attendance is required in the Level I, II and III classes offered by the Department of Modern Languages and in the first three levels of ES (English) classes. Absences in these courses will adversely affect the student's grade. Class attendance policies are set by individual instructors in the Departments of International Studies and World Business and in advanced courses in the Department of Modern Languages. In courses where there are waiting lists and/or in courses where the instructor's permission is required, students who are enrolled but do not attend the first class session may be administratively dropped by the professor, unless they have given proper notification to the professor. STUDENT CONDUCT Students at the School are preparing themselves for careers in which they will likely be given supervisory responsibilities at a senior corporate level. They are, therefore, expected to demonstrate maturity and selfdiscipline throughout the period of their study. 70 A student's continued enrollment, the receipt of academic credits, graduation, and the granting of any degree or certificate are strictly subject to the disciplinary authority of the School. The School is free to cancel a student's registration at any time for conduct deemed inconsistent with the maturity expected of the international executive. In addition, the School has the authority to expel students, if it has been determined that they cannot succeed in effectively handling any portion of the tripartite program leading to the Master of International Management degree. Details of required academic performance are set forth in the Student Handbook MASTER'S THESIS Candidates for the degree of Master of International Management may petition to write a thesis which will count for four hours credit toward the total number of hours required for the degree. An oral defense of the thesis is required. Information concerning thesis requirements may be obtained from the relevant department, as each department reserves the right to set its own standards with regard to content, subject matter, and form. Application forms for the thesis may be obtained from the Office of Academic Affairs. GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS Students must formally petition the Registrar for graduation during the term in which they plan to graduate. This must be done early in the term if the students expect to be included in the graduation program. RETURNING AFTER AN ABSENCE Students must meet the graduation requirements specified in the Bulletin in effect at the time of admission, if their studies are uninterrupted (except for a Summer Session). Students returning after an absence of a semester (other than a Summer Session) must meet the graduation requirements in effect at the time of return and also complete a minimum of six semester hours of work. Returning students will be required to re-establish their language proficiency level by taking the appropriate tests. Students whose academic work was taken more than five years before the anticipated returning date should confer with the Dean of Admissions about the prevailing policy. GRADUATION WITH DISTINCTION OR WITH HONORS A numerical score is used to determine those candidates who will be graduated with special recognition. A computed average of 3.80 must be attained for graduation With Distinction and an average of 3.70 for graduation With Honors. TRANSCRIPT REGULATIONS One complete transcript of record is furnished the student at the conclusion of each term, without charge. For each additional transcript, a fee of $2.00 is charged. The application for the transcript of record must be made by the student either on the regular form supplied at the Registrar's Office or by written request. No transcripts, letters of recommendation, or certifications of attendance will be released on students who have not met their financial obligations to the School.

"Thunderbird's reputation as a superior school for training business leaders is recognized the world over. Indeed, Thunderbird's students (they call themselves 'Tbirds1 represent nearly 50 foreign countries as well as the United States. Student James Bonfils sees this as one of the most positive aspects of the school. 'The variety of backgrounds and countries represented at Thunderbird provides an education in itself,' he says. "The faculty at Thunderbird is a blend of Ph.D.s and former business executives with extensive international experience. This diverse faculty provides the student with a pragmatic and useful education, which develops the leadership skills necessary to perform at the highest levels of international management. 'The hands-on experience that the faculty are able to share with the students is invaluable,' says Deborah Camper, president of the student body.

It's the network and the feeling of togetherness that gets generated here in the desert, and they really do support each other. People really do get jobs from other alums. T'birds really do have a community all around the world. In a day and age when business is so competitive, any advantage that you have can really help you. This School has really got it."
