Gain a Whole New Perspective
Globalization is increasing, and so is the need for leaders who understand how business is done in key markets around the world. Studying abroad gives you the chance to enrich your global business and cultural knowledge, forge exciting new connections, and gain an international edge.
The study abroad trip is part of the required Global Systems course, and lasts 7 to 10 days. During the trip you will:
- Visit multinational and local companies
- Observe successful companies operating in a different business framework
- Take an in-depth look at location-specific business topics
- See historic sites and engage in a variety of cultural activities.
