Faculty-led Program in Australia - Winter
This course is designed to provide students with a hands-on learning experience to enhance their knowledge and capability of working in a culture different from their own. In addition to studying the Australian business environment and culture, students will get hands-on experience with the ecological and natural environment in Australia. This entails things such as sailing on the Great Barrier Reef, viewing kangaroos and wallabees, seeing koalas at the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, spending time on some of the nicest beaches in the world at Surfers Paradise, and exploring world cities such as Sydney and Brisbane. Students will not only learn how to conduct business in Australia, but will also gain an appreciation for Australian culture and some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world.
