Abstract
Global Operations is an obligatory course for 4th-year students of the International Business program.
Global Operations is a practice-oriented course designed to equip students with a comprehensive understanding of managing operations across international markets. The course covers the global trade environment, including customs architecture, tariff and non-tariff regulation, HS classification of goods, and customs payment calculations. Students study INCOTERMS 2020 rules and their impact on the distribution of costs, risks, and responsibilities between trading parties. The course also addresses supply chain risk management, logistics outsourcing models (1PL–5PL), customs compliance and Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) certification, as well as modern trends such as ESG, Industry 4.0 and 5.0, and digital transformation in global logistics. Through interactive lectures, case studies, calculation exercises, and an individual analytical essay, students develop practical skills in designing and managing international trade operations.
