On July 1, 2005 the College of Business at San Francisco State University started implementing a two-year Business and International Education (BIE) grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The purposes of this grant are to develop (1) academic projects that will enhance the international business education of our students, and (2) community outreach projects designed to enhance the international trade endeavors of the northern California wine industry. Seven faculty members from four departments -- Management, Information Systems, Marketing and Decision Sciences -- are participating in two academic and three outreach grant projects. This grant represents the fourth in a series of BIE grant awards, totalling approximately three-quarters of a million dollars of federal funding to date.
