The College of Business sponsors both summer study abroad programs and semester programs and has partner institutions in England, France, Mexico, Japan, Germany, Spain, Thailand, China, and Canada.

Additional partnerships are under development. In addition, the University sponsors summer and semester programs to a variety of countries.

Students should plan for an international program early in their studies and consult with the International Business advisor for the transfer of credits earned abroad. The ideal time for a College of Business Study Abroad program is between junior and senior year. The summer study abroad programs are conducted in English or the language of the respective country at the partner universities. Check with the advisor for details. For these programs, students earn 6 credits for 2 courses (IDS 189, Interdisciplinary Studies and INB 245, Business Studies Abroad).

The semester programs offer courses in English and the language of the country. The student should see the advisor for the articulation of specific courses.
