“The business world is no longer local,” says David Kirk ’11. He should know: he’s a financial analyst for Cisco, a company that designs networking systems to connect the global world.As a freshman, Kirk was one of the first Franciscan students to sign up for the newly launched international business major.“I’ve always liked to travel; I’ve always been intrigued by other cultures,” he says, “and the coursework in the major reflected that.” Because of his major, David got to spend a full year studying abroad in Austria, where he says he “was able to experience firsthand” what he was learning in his classes about global business practices.
