This statement is false. There are many issues that arise in international business that is not studied in domestic business course. Today's globalized world needs a good understanding of international business to compete with other countries. Tariffs, different contract/property laws, corruption, different business cultures, the foreign exchange market, differing accounting systems, and the sheer difficulty of coordinating and overseeing international logistics/research/marketing/production/strategies/etc makes it important to study international business in addition to domestic business.
