Designated as one of YSU's four Centers of Excellence, the Williamson College of Business Center of Excellence in International Business encompasses global learning experiences for students, research in international business, the study of emerging markets, and training and consulting services for businesses. Components of the Center include the Williamson Center of International Business, the Emerging Market Initiative, and the Ohio Small Business Development Center at YSU.

The Emerging Markets Initiative was awarded the 2007 Governor's Excellence in Exporting Award for increasing awareness of exporting as a vital component of the state's economy. The Emerging Markets Initiative supported international study tours, curriculum development, faculty research projects, several outreach seminars, and the design and delivery of an International Business Scholars Workshop for high school students.
