PAMI Academic Programs

The PAMI Summer Certificate Program
PAMI's Summer Certificate Program offers certificates in international management and international entrepreneurship. Students must complete either three PAMI courses or two PAMI courses and one related area studies or language course. Students earn academic credits for either undergraduate or graduate courses in the program. Summer classes in the PAMI program are open to students from non-business disciplines and others interested in international business. The varied backgrounds of the students, many of whom already have real-world experience, add to the value of these classes. Faculty are drawn from the University of Hawai'i and other universities around the world.

The course work for the certificate in international management can include marketing, finance, accounting, business economics, plus courses in Asian languages or Asian Studies, international communication, international relations, etc. The aim is to extend the scope of the business student beyond a focus on just business courses, and to introduce students in other disciplines to a study of international business related to their potential career progress. The course work for the certificate in international entrepreneurship focus on venture capital, financing as well as business plan development.

In the first half of the program, students will learn how to create a favorable first impression, how to build strong business relationships and how to negotiate with Americans. The second half of the program focuses on the key legal issues and strategies that will enable a company to bring its products to the American market. Throughout the program, Dr. Day will provide practical suggestions for avoiding the common mistakes that many international firms make when attempting to enter the U.S. marketplace.
