Summer in the European Union
Early application deadline is in November 2013

Travel dates: mid-May to end of June 2014
Spend six weeks in Europe and earn six hours (MGMT 440/640 - International Management, and BUSN 341/793, The European Business Environment) while learning about the European Union (EU). You will study International Management in a European context and visit institutions of the EU, and other cultural, historical, and business sites.
Prerequisites: Business majors and minors - MGMT 320, Foundations of Management; Non-business majors - Junior standing.
As part of the experience, you will take field trips to Belgium, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Luxembourg, France, Germany, and Switzerland.
You will visit businesses such as a Belgian chocolate factory, the Antwerp diamond district, and the Guinness brewery in Dublin, Ireland; governmental institutions such as the European Parliament in Brussels and Strasbourg, France; and cultural and historic sites throughout the seven countries we visit.
The European Union (EU) was created to prevent another World War from happening, by linking trade between the various European nations. For some of our cultural trips, we will explore various World War II sites, since that war was so instrumental in the creation of the EU. We will visit the D-Day Beaches of Normandy, France; the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium; Checkpoint Charlie and the Sachsenhausen concentration camp in Berlin, Germany; the American Cemetery in Luxembourg; and other WWII sites.
