What students have said about previous trips:

“This trip is a must for any student interested in global business, it was the best educational experience I've ever had in terms of broadening students' perspective business, culture, and communication. I have spent my career working for two large multi-national corporations and have traveled to Europe and Asia many times for work, and was just amazed by the experience. The educational, cultural, and perspective-broadening opportunities on the trip were outstanding, even for experienced travelers. Visiting many different businesses across disparate industries as well as gaining perspective from an economist, EU officials, and local interactions provided for an engaging learning and broadening unmatched by any other scholastic or work experience I've had. Again, I would recommend this study abroad program as a must for every Bauer student.”
Josh Green, MBA student.

“I thought this trip was a blast. I got to experience an entirely new culture and I embraced every bit of it. This type of trip really opens up your eyes, sort of like a revitalization. You start to realize just how free you are and how much you don't know about the world. I would definitely recommend future students to take advantage of this unique opportunity.”
William B. Van Pelt, IV, MBA student.

Anthony David, MBA student.

“The program is excellent for both the cultural experience and for understanding the business atmosphere in Eastern/Central Europe.” Tony P. To, MBA student.
